CWN Editor's Note: Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna will visit Mocow later this week to confer with top Russian officials in a bid to find a path to peace in Ukraine.
The cardinal visited Ukraine earlier this month, meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky as a papal envoy.
The Vatican announced that the cardinal’s trip to Moscow, June 28 and 29, would be designed “to encourage gestures of humanity, that may contribute to promoting a solution to the tragic current situation, and to find ways to reach a just peace.”
