Archbishop Visvaldas Kulbokas, apostolic nuncio to Ukraine, told Aid to the Church in Need that “during this war, which is not a purely human invention, there is something demonic about it – as there is in all violence. And we can only defeat the evil in this war together, all over the world, through fasting, prayer, much humility, and love.”

“There are plenty of reasons for this war, and some claim that there is a religious dimension to some of them,” he added. “I consider this completely incorrect.”
