Pope Francesc said this in the homily of the Mass with the European bishops, gathered in Rome for their plenary assembly.
The founding fathers had a "vision, I would dare to say, prophetic and overall, because they did not seek the consensus of the moment, but dreamed of everyone's future. This is how the walls of the European house were built and only in this way can they be strengthened", Pope Francis stressed. .
