Archbishop Ettore Balestrero, the Vatican Permanent Observer to the United Nations and Other International Organizations in Geneva addresses the 34th International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent and insists on the moral obligation of all parties to armed conflicts to respect International Humanitarian Law safeguarding civilians.

“It is extremely alarming that, despite the strict obligation to distinguish between military objectives and civilian objects, “there is no conflict that does not end up in some way indiscriminately striking the civilian population”.

“We cannot consider conflicts to be inevitable, nor can we deem everything permissible in times of war.”In the face of the current troubling world context, Archbishop Balestrero highlighted the urgent need for an educational process aimed at disseminating International Humanitarian Law and its ethical foundation and pledged the Catholic Church’s support in “reawakening the public conscience” on these issues.
