Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher speaking at the Conference in Diplomacy and the Gospel in Vaduz, Liechtenstein“We are all hungry for peace, and this peace cannot be achieved without walking the paths of reconciliation.” Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher reaffirmed this stance in a keynote speech at a conference on Vatican diplomacy he delivered on 24 April in Liechtenstein.
In his extensive speech, titled “Diplomacy and the Gospel”, Archbishop Gallagher gave a wide-range insight into Papal diplomacy that, inspired by the Gospel, “is always in favour of peace and human dignity, with mercy as a guiding principle to promote reconciliation”. This explains why in emergency situations, such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, world leaders seek and find in Pope Francis “a moral authority and a remarkable reference point, to the extent that they invoke his intervention and mediation”, though unfortunately, Archbishop Gallagher said, the Pope’s and the Holy See’s efforts to mediate between Russia and Ukraine so far haven’t produced any progress.
“We can say that in its international presence, the Holy See has always promoted this"active virtue" that Pope Francis himself has called"the courage of peace," which means"the strength to persevere in dialogue at all costs, the patience to weave day by day the increasingly robust fabric of respectful and peaceful coexistence, for the glory of God and the good of all. It takes courage to make peace, much more than to make war.
