Pope urges Europe to choose dialogue over military buildup
Original: Pope: Europe must return to path of dialogue, not military buildup, to end ‘senseless slaughter’
The Pope called on Europe to return to the path of dialogue rather than pursuing military buildup, saying this is the only way to end what he described as a 'senseless slaughter'. His remarks come amid ongoing debate in Europe over rising defence spending and the war in Ukraine, positioning the Vatican against those favouring rearmament.
Why now: European governments are debating increased defence spending while the Ukraine war continues, making the Pope's appeal for dialogue newly relevant.
