This is an unprecedented gesture by the pope, with the aim of demanding dialogue and a return to the negotiating table between the Moscow government and Ukraine.
The pope went personally to the Russian embassy to the Holy See on Friday to see the ambassador, Alexander Avdeev, and express his concern about Russia’s attack on Ukraine, the Vatican’s communication office confirmed.
Francis’ unprecedented gesture when leaving the Vatican to visit the nearby Russian embassy, which is located on Via de la Conciliazone, is part of the Holy See’s constant effort to request dialogue and a return to the negotiating table.
Adveed works to prepare for the second meeting between Francis and Patriarch Kirill of the Russian Orthodox Church and keeps Francis constantly informed about the conflict in Ukraine.
