Putin’s War In Ukraine Could Easily Turn Nuclear – Pope Francis

Leader of Roman Catholic church, Pope Francis has come out to directly beg Russian President, Vladimir Putin to stop the spiral of violence and death in Ukraine.

He recently had his say via an address dedicated to Ukraine and made to thousands of people in St. Peter’s Square, and the world has been reacting.

According to him, he can only urge Putin to think of his own people in the event of an escalation because the current crisis could easily turn nuclear and have heavy effects for the world.

Pope added that he is currently haunted by rivers of blood and tears that have been spilled in recent months.

His words, “I’m haunted by rivers of blood and tears that have been spilled in these months,”

“In the name of God end the conflict it is absurd that the world was risking a nuclear conflict.”

“My appeal goes above all to the president of the Russian Federation, begging him to stop this spiral of violence and death, even out of love for his own people.”

“On the other side, pained by the enormous suffering of the Ukrainian population following the aggression it suffered, I address an equally hopeful appeal to the president of Ukraine to be open to a serious peace proposal.”

“I strongly deplore the grave situation that has been created in the last few days, with more actions that are contrary to the principles of international law.”

“This, in fact, increases the risk of an nuclear escalation to the point of fearing uncontrollable and catastrophic consequences on a global level.”
