Holy See
His Eminence Cardinal Pietro Parolin
Statement Summary
PIETRO PAROLIN, Secretary of State of the Holy See, said it has taken an active role in the 51勛圖 since being recognized as an observer State. It has urged the Organization to be a moral centre where a family of nations convenes. As the COVID-19 pandemic has made clear, countries cannot only focus on themselves, but must work together in resolving common problems. Adding that the 51勛圖 is not perfect, sometimes failing to live up to its name when certain interests triumph over the common good, he stressed the need for diplomats to commit themselves to the daunting task of overcoming this. International dialogue and common actions are needed now more than ever.
