Vatican City, 9 November 2015 (VIS) –
Today the Holy Father Francis received in audience Andrzej Duda,
president of the Republic of Poland, who subsequently met with
Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin, accompanied by Msgr.
Antoine Camilleri, under-secretary for Relations with States.
During the cordial discussions, the
Church’s positive contribution to Polish society was emphasised,
also in view of the Holy Father’s planned visit to Kraków next
year on the occasion of World Youth Day. Attention then turned to
various themes of mutual interest, such as the promotion of the
family, support for social groups most in need, and the welcome of
migrants.
Finally, some themes regarding the
international community were discussed, such as peace and security,
the conflict in Ukraine and the situation in the Middle East.
