He added that the agreement is “another promising step towards achieving the university’s strategy of expanding its international partnerships and promoting Jerusalem’s historic and cultural identity as a cradle of civilization”.

Prof. Dr. Abu Kishek extended his gratitude to the Italian partners, represented by Prof. Ando, ​​for their efforts to recruit Italian businessmen and politicians to support and finance the idea of establishing such a center that is expected to enhance shared knowledge and contribute, according to AQU’s President, to building cultural and ‘social’ bridges between the Arabs and the Europeans.
