Black Sea grain deal: Pope urges Russia to restore initiative, dubs exit ‘grave offence to God’
Description
July 30, 2023
While delivering his Angelus message to a crowd of thousands in St. Peter’s Square, Vatican City on Sunday, Pope Francis called upon Russia to resuscitate the Black Sea grain deal, which allowed Ukraine to safely export their grain supply and feed millions amid the ongoing war. “This is a grave offence to God, for grain is His gift to feed humanity,” the Pope said.
