(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 3 - Rome's hoped-for location of the Expo 2030 world's fair for which it is bidding will be next to the site of one of the Italian capital's three universities, at Tor Vergata, Mayor Roberto Gualtieri said in presenting the bid Thursday.
    "Expo 2030 will offer the perfect framework where ideas and projects regarding urban regeneration from every country can prosper and lead inclusion and sustainability," said the centre-left Democratic Party (PD) official.
    "We imagine Expo not only as a temporary exposition, but as an opportunity for intelligent and sustainable urban regeneration.
    "It is time to unveil the place where we plan to realise Expo.
