In his Christmas address, Pope Francis mentions the conflict in Ukraine
This year, hundreds of believers gathered in the square of St. Peter's Cathedral despite the bad weather.
On December 25, in his traditional Christmas address Urbi et orbi (“To the City and the World”), Pope Francis called on the world community to dialogue to resolve conflicts, including in Ukraine, tass.ru reports.
“(Lord – Ed.), be the light and support for those who believe and work, even going against the stream, in favor of meeting and dialogue, and do not let the metastases of a gangrenous conflict spread throughout Ukraine,” said the head of the RCC.
The speech was delivered from the balcony of St. Peter's Cathedral. This year, hundreds of believers have gathered in the square despite the bad weather.
As the UOJ previously reported, the Pope wished that Christmas bring peace to Ukraine.
