Vatican City, 29 June 2014 (VIS) –
“The news from Iraq is, unfortunately, very painful”, said the
Holy Father after today's Angelus prayer. “I join with the bishops
of the country in their appeal to the authorities so that, through
dialogue, national unity may be maintained and war avoided. I am
close to the thousands of families, especially Christians, who have
had to leave their homes and who are in grave danger. Violence begets
violence; dialogue is the only path to peace. Let us pray to the
Virgin Mary that she might safeguard the people of Iraq”.
