On
Sunday November 10, Pope Francis called for South Sudan politicians to
come to a consensus for the good of the country to end the civil war
that has killed at least 400,000 people since it started in 2013. Pope
Francis stated, “The
South Sudanese people have suffered too much in these last year and
awaits with great hope a better future, above all the definitive end to
conflicts and a lasting peace.”
The
Pope also encouraged the international community to help South Sudan
restore itself. He hopes everyone will help nurture this nation and
calls for prayers for them.
Pope Francis plans on visiting the nation in 2020.
