The cry of young people
who are forced to abandon their homeland due to "the abuse of
power, injustice and war ... rises up to God", Pope Francis said
on Friday in a letter to young people published ahead of the
synod of bishops on youth in October 2018.
"Many young people are subjected to the blackmail of violence
and made to flee their country of birth," the pope continued.
For them, a new land should be "a more just and fraternal
society that you desire deeply and want to build as far as the
peripheries of the world," he added.
