(ANSA) - VATICAN CITY, NOV 29 - "Migrants are being used more and more as a bargaining chip, as pawns on a chessboard, victims of political rivalries".
The Pope underlines this in a video message for the 70th anniversary of the International Organization for Migration.
"How can suffering and despair be exploited to advance or defend political agendas? How can political considerations prevail when the dignity of the human person is at stake? The basic lack of human respect at national borders diminishes everyone in our humanity", adds the Pope. . (ANSA).
