Other discussions will focus on the new geopolitical developments in Mesopotamia, as well as the role and significance of the media in war situations.

The Italian-Arabic center had earlier proposed different pro-Armenian initiatives in remembrance of the 1915 atrocities against the Armenians of the Ottoman Empire. The center has proclaimed 2015 as Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day. It has even asked the European Parliament to consider a similar decision on the pan-European level.
