CWN Editor's Note: Three days after the commencement of the Iran conflict, Archbishop Eugene Nugent, apostolic nuncio to Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar, told Vatican News that the situation in Kuwait “is dramatic and worsening day by day.”
“We are trying to remain calm, of course, but it is somewhat frightening,” said the nuncio, who is based in Kuwait. “We are all somewhat shocked by what is happening.”
“Sadly, once a war begins, no one ever knows when it will end,” Archbishop Nugent added. “Everything is accelerating, but we must still try every avenue. A long war benefits no one and will benefit no one, especially in a region already tried by many conflicts.”
