The Ambassador

Niccolò Fontana is the Ambassador of Italy to Iraq.

It is with great enthusiasm and pride that I take on the leadership of the Italian Embassy in the Republic of Iraq, a country that plays a crucial role in the region, rich in history and with great potential for growth and development.

High-level relations traditionally exist between Italy and Iraq. Together with the team of the Embassy in Baghdad and the Consulate General in Erbil, we will do our utmost to consolidate this partnership and open new channels of cooperation, in multiple sectors: from politics to economics, from culture to civil society collaboration, from university and archaeological cooperation to the partnership in the defense sector.
