Salvatore Sciacchitano re-elected Icao president
Salvatore Sciacchitano has been re-elected for a second three-year term as president of the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (Icao).
Sciacchitano first assumed the office of Icao council president on 1 January 2020. Prior to this, he was part of the Italian delegation to Icao, following an accomplished 39-year career in aviation, during which he served as director general of the Italian Airworthiness Authority (RAI), as deputy director general of the Italian Civil Aviation Authority (Enac), among many other high-level international positions.
“While the Covid-19 pandemic has dramatically impacted the Organisation’s work, I take great pride in the fact that the priorities identified as part of my agenda for modernisation have all been addressed with reasonable success,” Sciacchitano said during his acceptance address. (cj)
