(ANSA) - TRIESTE, 26 LUG - An editorial meeting of a newspaper held abroad. It is what Il Piccolo, from Trieste, Monfalcone, and Gorizia (published by the Nem group), carried out for the first time in its long history which began in 1881.
    It is probably the first time for an Italian newspaper. In the newspaper, there are pages dedicated to the political, social, and cultural life of Istria (a region divided between Slovenia and Croatia) and the Balkans, where there is a strong Italian community.
    The newspaper meeting was hosted on Wednesday, July 24, at the headquarters of the Community of Italians of Rovinj (Rovigno, Croatia), with a large group of community members. The objective was to enhance and highlight the connection with the Italian community. In Rovigno, Il Piccolo met in two sessions, as it does every morning in Trieste: one with the other newspapers of the Nord Est Multimedia Group (Piccolo, Messaggero Veneto, Mattino di Padova, La Nuova Venezia, La Tribuna di Treviso, Il Corriere delle Alpi, Nordest Economia) and the other via video connection with the editorial offices of Trieste, Gorizia, and Monfalcone.
    Luca Ubaldeschi, the director of the Nem group's publications, opened the proceedings by connecting from the Quirinale Palace in Rome. Fabrizio Brancoli, deputy director of the Nem group and coordinator of Il Piccolo, led the local meeting. The members of the Italian community, led by president Viviana Benussi, participated, discussing with the journalists present and those connected remotely. The deputy mayor of Rovinj, David Modrušan, was also present.
    The relationship with Italy was explored in depth, with news and ideas for services. The report of the day is published in the two editions of the newspaper on newsstands today, with a multimedia story on the newspaper's website. (ANSA).
