CWN Editor's Note: “I am not forgetting the martyred Ukraine,” Pope Francis said on September 7, at his general audience. “Faced with all the war scenarios of our time, I ask everyone to be builders of peace and to pray that thoughts and projects of harmony and reconciliation may spread throughout the world. Today we are living through a world war, let us stop please.”

The Pope’s remarks on Ukraine, delivered in Italian, were not included in the Vatican’s English translation of the general audience.
