Beijing – Andrea de Guttry’s new Chinese mission is about to start, as the professor of international law takes another step towards institutional and academic relations with the Far East. Today, de Guttry is presenting the volume he curated, alongside researcher Emanuele Sommari and Lijiang Zhu, professor at China University of Political Science and Law, with a preface by Romano Prodi. The book focuses on Italy and China’s participation in international peacekeeping operations. After the event, which will see the participation of the Italian Ambassador in China, Alberto Bradanini, Andrea de Guttry will head to Lanfang, where, at the invitation of the local authorities, he will hold a course on the legal aspects regarding peacekeeping operations for the benefit of the officers set to join UN missions.
