Johny Messo (born February 7, 1978 in Hengelo) is an Aramean politician. His parents are both from the city of Midyat in Tur Abdin. Since 10 October 2008, he has been the president of the World Council of Arameans since 1983.
After giving the opening lecture at its first annual conference in 2016, he was invited to join the academic Minerva Center for the Relations between Israel and Aram in Biblical Times (RIAB) as a member. On 15 May 2018, he chaired the morning session of RIAB's 3rd Annual Meeting at Leipzig University.
In the last two decades, Messo has written several publications and has lectured throughout Europe, the United States, Australia, the Middle East and India about past, present, and future questions pertaining to the Aramean people. For example, on 25 November 2017, he published the book titled ”Arameans and the Making of ‘Assyrians’: The Last Aramean-speaking Christians of the Middle East". The Dutch translation appeared on 6 June 2018 and was presented to the Alderman of the municipality of Enschede in the Netherlands, Jurgen van Houdt.
