ROME (ITALPRESS) – “The present situation of ‘World War III fought in pieces’ – but there is, World War III – seems permanent and unstoppable. The current crisis seriously threatens the patient efforts of the international community, especially through multilateral diplomacy, to encourage cooperation in addressing the grave injustices and pressing social, economic and environmental challenges facing the human family. And this is so, I am not exaggerating.” So said Pope Francis as he received participants at the annual meeting of the International Network of Catholic Legislators. “Our world, tired of war-it seems that it cannot live, without war-needs to renew the spirit of hope that led to the founding of the structures of cooperation in the service of peace in the aftermath of World War II. War is not hope, war does not give hope,” the Holy Father added.
