"No one will be able to control": Vatican does not support the western weapons on the Russian Federation

Cardinal Pietro Prodlin emphasizes that today it is worth focusing on the return of Ukrainian children from Russia, as the use of Western weapons in the Russian Federation can lead to escalation. The permission to use Ukraine with NATO countries for strikes in Russia will mean "uncontrolled escalation" of the conflict, said the Vatican Secretary of the Vatican Cardinal Pietro Wandelin, writes Ansa. "I think that such an opportunity has to worry all those in the heart of the fate of our world.

It can lead to escalation that no one can control anymore," he said. He recalled that the Vatican works at the humanitarian level. Now the main focus is to return Ukrainian children from Russia. In his opinion, "there is no other way. " It should be reminded that on March 31, Pope Francis during the Easter message stated the need for respect for the principles of international law, and also called for the exchange of prisoners between Russia and Ukraine.
