immense trust in Him.” The pontiff also urged “drivers to be prudent and respect the rules as the first form of protection of themselves and others.”

Vatican City (AsiaNews) – Pope Francis spoke about Lebanon after the Angelus, saying that he hoped the country “could continue to be a message of respect and coexistence for the whole region and the whole world.

In Lebanon, tensions are running high, and its people is one of those “that are experiencing painful suffering because of war and conflicts.” In view of this, the pontiff called on the international community “to make every possible effort to favour peace, in particular in the Middle East.”
