Italian President Sergio Mattarella
on Tuesday sent a message to Pope Francis to congratulate him
on the 11th anniversary of his papal inauguration on 19 March,
2013 in St. Peter's Square.
In the message, the president stressed the need for dialogue
between people of faith and non-believers to tackle the world's
many problems.
"Faced with the main challenges of our time - not only wars, but
also growing economic and social inequalities, environmental
risks and the ethical repercussions of the use of artificial
intelligence - believers and non-believers are called to have
dialogue with each other in order to identify responses
consistent with the protection of human dignity and the
promotion, in every sphere and circumstance, of the common
good," the message read.
