Pope Leo XIV, leader of the Catholic Church, has expressed “deep concern” about the US-Israeli attacks against Iran, adding that peace are not built with mutual threats or deadly weapons.

In reaction to US-Israeli attacks against Iran, Pope referred to the expanded violence in the Middle East, urging the countries to recall their moral responsibility to achieve peace, as reported by VATICAN News on Sunday.

“Stability and peace are not built with mutual threats, nor with weapons, which sow destruction, pain, and death, but only through a reasonable, authentic, and responsible dialogue,” he said.

The Pope warned of an immense tragedy if attacks escalated out of control.

“Faced with the possibility of a tragedy of enormous proportions,” he said, adding, “I address to the parties involved a heartfelt appeal to assume the moral responsibility to stop the spiral of attack before it becomes an irreparable abyss!”

Pope Leo prayed that nations may return to dialogue in order to seek peace.
