Emilia-Romagna Governor Stefano
Bonaccini and former premier and European Commission chief
Romano Prodi on Wednesday visited the Italy pavilion at Expo
Dubai 2020.
Bonaccini, who like Prodi is a member of the centre-left
Democratic Party (PD), said "it is a marvelous pavilion where
you see the genius, excellence and quality of Italy, of which
obviously as Emilia-Romagna we try to express the utmost
potential possible".
The two senior PD figures were accompanied by Italy Pavilion
Commissioner Paolo Glisenti.
Before the visit, Prodi addressed the Global Business Forum
Asean at Expo.
"I have been very impressed, amazed even" by the Italy pavilion,
the ex-PD chief said, dismissing "ridiculous polemics about its
conception.
Prodi said he had also been "very pleased" by the fact that 70
young people have been trained to show people around and
explain the various exhibits.
