(Vatican Radio) A leading Catholic peace campaigner says she hopes that Pope Francis’s condemnation of nuclear weapons can influence the current “serious and frightening exchange” between the United States and North Korea.
Co-president of Pax Christi International Marie Dennis, who attended the recent international symposium on disarmament and development held at the Vatican, said she believed the Pope’s clear call for the abolition of nuclear weapons could cause “even the most resistant politicians” to listen.
In an interview with Vatican Radio, Dennis said: “It is very important that the world understand the depth and seriousness of Pope Francis’s commitment to nuclear abolition”.
