“We must not ignore the weak and the underprivileged all over the world who are suffering from viruses and civil wars.”
Pope Francis appealed to the world on the 4th of Easter (local time) for the need for a fair distribution of vaccines for the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) and cessation of armed conflicts around the world.
On the day of the return of the second Easter after the Corona 19 pandemic, the Pope said through the message’Urbi et Orbi’ (Latin meaning’Rome and the whole world’) announced at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. “The international community must overcome the delay in vaccine supply and send vaccines to poor countries,” he urged. “It is the poor people who are suffering from the increasingly serious social and economic crisis while the infectious disease is still raging.” After praying for “consolation of the sick, those who have lost loved ones, and the unemployed,” they ordered governments to provide adequate stimulus measures.
At the same time, he lamented the reality that disputes never ceased. He criticized it as “a shame.” He prayed, “The armed conflict is not ending, and the armaments are strengthening,” and prayed, “Let me overcome the desire to fight. The day of Easter is also the’International Support Day for Mine Recognition and Mine Removal Activities’ set by the United Nations.
We expressed a sense of solidarity to the youths of Myanmar who are committed to resisting the military coup and restoring democracy, and praying for the people of Syria, Yemen, and Libya who have been groaning in a long civil war to stop the roar of weapons of destruction and to bring peace. Wished.
Usually, the Pope announces the Urbiet Orbi message to 100,000 believers gathered in the square from the central balcony on the 2nd floor of St. Peter’s Cathedral twice a year during Christmas and Easter. However, as in last year, on this day, only about 200 believers and priests were watching for quarantine, and this was broadcast live through local TV channels and Vatican News YouTube channels.
To block the spread of the coronavirus, the Italian government has imposed a blockade that enforces restrictions on going out and closing of non-essential businesses such as restaurants for three days on the 3rd to 5th day of Easter.
