Reacting to the Pope's latest appeal for a ceasefire in Ukraine and dialogue for finding peace, Msgr. Robert Vitillo, secretary general of the International Catholic Migration Commission has expressed his gratitude for the Pope's words saying he hopes that it gives impetus to find ways to halt the conflict and work for a peaceful solution.
Msgr. Vitillo gave the following interview to Vatican Radio/Vatican News about the Pope's appeals and the conclusion of the Catholic Response to Ukraine's meetings in recent days. My organization, ICMC, was asked to convene the Catholic Response for Ukraine Working Group, which is made up of all of the major Catholic humanitarian organizations at the global level. So, the Caritas International Confederation, Jesuit Refugee Services, ICMC - our organization, also the Sovereign Order of Malta, and a number of other organizations like the Knights of Columbus, the Vincentians – known as DePaul International, and also Stella Maris the organization for seafarers.
Also, health needs. The UN estimates that about 660 health facilities have been partially or totally destroyed during the war. Also, we heard from our colleagues in Ukraine that ten percent of all the schools have been damaged. And so, you could see that there are many, many infrastructure problems that that we're trying to find the ways to best support.
