Luca Peruzzi interviewed Admiral (ret.) Matteo Biceglia, who was appointed Director of the Organisation Conjointe de Coopération en matière d’Armement / Organisation for Joint Armament Co-operation (OCCAR) in September 2019. Adm. Bisceglia already served within the organisation along his career, so he was far from new to the organisation he was called to direct.
