'Enough! Stop! Let the weapons fall silent. Negotiate seriously for peace.'
Pope Francis leads the Angelus prayer from the window of the Apostolic Palace at the Vatican, March 27 2022.The threat of a global conflict spawned by Russia's invasion of Ukraine should convince everyone that the time has come for humanity to abolish war before it abolishes humanity, Pope Francis said on Sunday.
“We must repudiate war, a place of death where fathers and mothers bury their children, where men kill their brothers without even seeing them, where the powerful decide and the poor die,” he said. “That is the bestiality of war, something that is barbarous and sacrilegious,” he said, urging his listeners not to consider war as inevitable or something to get used to.
Since Russia invaded its neighbour on February 24, Francis has several times spoken of a possible nuclear conflict.
