(ANSA) - VATICAN CITY, DEC 22 - During the trip to Cyprus and Greece "I was once again able to touch the injured humanity of refugees and migrants".

Thus the Pope. "I also noted that only some European countries are bearing most of the consequences of the migratory phenomenon in the Mediterranean area, while in reality it requires a shared responsibility of all, from which no country can exempt itself, because it is a problem of humanity".

"Thanks to the generous openness of the Italian authorities, I was able to bring a group of people to Rome - he added -. It is a small sign that I hope it will serve as a stimulus for other European countries".

(HANDLE).
