Statement by His Eminence Cardinal Michael Czerny, S.J., Undersecretary of the Migrants and Refugees Section of the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, Head of Delegation of the Holy See to the High-Level Officials Meeting

As Pope Francis recently affirmed during his visit to the Reception and Identification Centre in Mytilene, Greece, “It is an issue for the whole world: a humanitarian crisis that concerns everyone. The pandemic has had a global impact; it has made us realize that we are all on the same boat; it has made us experience what it means to have identical fears. We have come to understand that the great issues must be faced together, since in today’s world piecemeal solutions are inadequate.”
