Holy See: Global race to rearmament endangers humanity

According to Archbishop Gabriele Caccia, the world is experiencing a "perilous resurgence of force and fear" as ways to resolve disputes.

The "spirit of diplomacy and multilateralism" that once sought to protect humanity from the scourge of war is being overshadowed.

The Holy See's Permanent Observer to the United Nations urged world leaders to recommit to disarmament.
Archbishop Caccia called for the revival of multilateral dialogue aimed at safeguarding humanity's future.

This comes 80 years after the atomic devastation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the founding of the United Nations.
