Vatican
City, 1 June 2013 (VIS) – This morning the Holy Father Francis
received in audience His excellency Mr. Jose Alberto Mujica Cordano,
president of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, who then went on to
meet with the Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, S.D.B.,
accompanied by Archbishop Dominique Mamberti, secretary for Relations
with States.
The
cordial discussions allowed an exchange of information and reflection
upon the country's socio-political situation and its role within the
region. In this context, issues of common interest were treated,
including the total development of the person, the respect of human
rights, justice, and social peace. The Catholic Church's contribution
in the public debate on these issues was not overlooked, as well as
her service in all areas of society, particularly in the areas of
welfare and education.
