WelCom October 2020
Addressing the wave of protests that have swept around the world this summer [Northern Hemisphere], some of which have turned violent, the Pope has appealed for peaceful demonstrations and for those fuelled by hate to let go and move toward forgiveness and reconciliation. But he also appealed to those in authority to listen to their voice and urged pastors to encourage dialogue.
‘While I encourage the protestors to present their requests in a peaceful way, without falling into the temptation of aggressiveness and violence, I appeal to all those who have public and governing responsibility to listen to the voice of their citizens,’ he said, urging them to meet the ‘just aspirations’ of protestors while ensuring ‘full respect of human rights and civil liberties.’
