“I renew my closeness with the dear people of Myanmar, who unfortunately continue to suffer from violence and suppression. I pray that they do not despair and always rely on the Lord’s help,” Pope Francis said after reciting the Angelus on Sunday, November 19, 2023, and then added: “Also, brothers and sisters, let us continue to pray for the tormented Ukraine, I see here the flags of Ukraine, and for the people of Palestine and Israel.”
The Holy Father emphasized: “Peace is possible. It requires goodwill. Peace is possible. Let us not resign ourselves to war! Let us remember that war is always, always, always a defeat. Only arms makers profit from it.”
