He developed the ideas of geography, labour demand, and government policy as they relate to Italy\u2019s increase in immigration from across the Mediterranean Sea and Eastern European countries. At the end of his presentation, Professor Pugliese touched on the influx of immigrants from Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa as a result of the revolutions stemming from the Arab Spring.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The second lecture was presented by Giuseppe Cataldi titled \u201cMigrations through Mediterranean Corridors: Some Law of the Sea and Human Rights Issues.\u201d Giuseppe Cataldi is a Professor of International Law at the University of Naples \u201cL\u2019Orientale.\u201d Coming from a law background, Professor Cataldi discussed the responsibility of states to protect immigrants seeking asylum from war-torn and unstable countries. In addition, he discussed the necessity for a strong EU-Mediterranean partnership to share the burden of the immigration issue. He also spoke of two specific operations, MARE NOSTRUM and Operation Trident. MARE NOSTRUM was described as a costly, but necessary operation funded by Italy to provide a solution to immigrants fleeing North African shores. Although it is coming to an end due to cost, it is a testament to the necessity of an EU approach to the situation of immigration in the Mediterranean region. <\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">At the end of the lecture series, Col. Giuseppe Morabito, Head of the Middle East Faculty, mediated the question\/answer session and provided the concluding remarks. The success of the lecture series was made possible by the University of Naples \u201cL\u2019Orentale\u201d in cooperation with the NATO Defense College and the Course on international and Diplomatic Studies.<\/p>\n<p><em>NDC Public Affairs Office<br \/>(Prepared by Mr Jonathan Strickland, USA C)<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q&#038;A session; (r to l) Professor Pugliese, Professor Cataldi and Colonel Morabito On Friday, the twelfth NATO Regional<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","editor_plus_copied_stylings":"{}","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"post_badge":[],"class_list":["post-11928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"NDC","author_link":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/author\/admin_3rwqf6tj\/"},"modified_by":null,"author_meta":{"display_name":"NDC","author_link":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/author\/admin_3rwqf6tj\/"},"featured_img":null,"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":"","morenews-featured":"","morenews-large":"","morenews-medium":""},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/category\/news\/\" rel=\"category tag\">News<\/a>","tag_info":"News","comment_count":0,"coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/category\/news\/\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">News<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">News<\/span>"]}},"relative_dates":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 12 ans il y a","modified":"Mis \u00e0 jour 6 mois il y a"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 le novembre 17, 2014","modified":"Mise \u00e0 jour le janvier 15, 2026"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 le novembre 17, 2014 19:00","modified":"Mise \u00e0 jour le janvier 15, 2026 09:10"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11928","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11928"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11928\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11928"},{"taxonomy":"post_badge","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_badge?post=11928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
