Addressing the 52nd session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva, Archbishop Fortunatus Nwachukwu, Secretary of the Dicastery for Evangelisation, stressed the desire of the Holy See to bring to the attention of this Council"the plight of many individuals and communities who endure persecution because of their religious beliefs"

He added that this violence is also perpetrated towards places of worship and religious sites as they are desecrated and destroyed, and religious leaders violently attacked. Archbishop Nwachukwu then went on to stress that, in this regard, the Holy See “cannot fail to mention, as certain statistics have shown, that one out of every seven Christians experiences persecution.”
