(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 21 - Ukrainian children have lost their
smiles in an inhuman war inflicted on the country by Russia,
Pope Francis told his general audience on Wednesday. "We think
of the many children of Ukraine who are suffering, suffering so
much for this war. On this feast of God who becomes a child we
think of the Ukrainian children", said Francis, adding that when
he meets them in the Vatican "the majority cannot smile and when
a child loses the ability to smile it is serious. "These
children carry the tragedy of that war which is so inhuman, so
harsh. "We think of the Ukrainian people on this Christmas
without light, without heating, without the main things to
survive, and we pray to the Lord that He may bring peace as soon
as possible." (ANSA).
