Pope says the losing side must “have the courage” to negotiate.

Pope Francis said that in the conflict in Ukraine, the losing side must find the courage to admit it and agree to negotiate. The Pontiff stated this in a television interview with a Swiss television and radio company, writes Reuters .
In the interview, Francis was asked about his position in the debate between those who say Ukraine should surrender because it has failed to repel Russian forces and those who say this would legitimize Russia’s actions. The interviewer used the term “white flag” in the question.
“This is one interpretation. But I believe that the one who looks at the situation, thinks about the people, has the courage to raise the white flag and negotiate will be stronger,” Francis said. – The word “negotiations” is a bold word. When you see that you have been defeated, that things are not going well, you need to have the courage to negotiate,” Francis said, adding that negotiations must take place with the help of international powers.
This is believed to be the first time Francis has used terms such as “white flag” or “defeat” when discussing the war in Ukraine, although he has spoken in the past about the need for negotiations.
“You can feel shame, but with how many dead will this (war) end? (We need) to negotiate on time, to find a country that can mediate,” Francis said, mentioning Turkey among such countries.

Another fuckin moron. Fuck you Pope Wonder if he’s ever gone through or seen genocide. Of course not he sits his ass pontificating bullshit
Sits on his Arse wanking to kiddie Porn you mean.
No comment.
Sounds like when the Church molests children and the children get to negotiate damages and the perpetrators are protected. Par for the course.
Another ignoramus who should stay with things he knows and keep out of things he doesn’t. He should go after child molesting priests and just shut up.
This makes me wonder if he has read the Old Testament recently. Imho, as a renegade catholic, fairy tales by ancient propagandists, but still a part of the official bible of the church. There’s lots of stories there about jewish people refusing to give up. David didn’t wave the white flag when having to fight Goliath and having almost no chance at all. Instead, he acted very unreasonable, according to the reasoning of Pope Francis, and fought back. How to explain this stubborn refusal to surrender? Seems to me that the Pope, well meaning as I believe his is, is badly misadviced. 🤨
Francis is the papal name of Jorge Mario Bergoglio. Bergoglio was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to two Italian immigrants, on December 17, 1936
So he is essentially Italian.
I hope to fuck there are no Italians here or I’ll get a right pasting for this one.
What’s the defining feature of an Italian Tank?

Salami eating surrender monkeys
Well, those alleged “surrender monkeys” invaded the proudly independent kingdom Ethiopia in the 1930s, for no good reason at all but Mussolini’s vain fantasies of an empire. After that, they fought quite valiantly against superior forces, at the side of the German “Africa Corps”. I do think we should be glad that Italy ended its flirt with evil and is a peaceful country now, even though they may overdo it. However, that’s not a nation known for its foreign policy expertise, I agree. And that can be said of Pope Francis, too. Well meaning ideals can’t replace good reasoning, based on solid ethics! 😠
I could understand general church language that attempts to appease. His apostolate is not in the promotion of weapons or military strategy. But still. There are limits that even the solemnity, calm and peace of the most blessed chapel could not tolerate.
Rapes and murders of children and women by the thousands and we must raise the white flag?! This church is a disgrace. When we mix gospel messages with politics it results in this kind of media disaster.
Why won’t this imbecile stand on his knees in front of the Kremlin and ask them to stop their crimes? This is what we expect from a church. This is what we expect of him!
“In war, it is mandatory to try the following things (otherwise, why go there at all?):
1) Taste human flesh;
2) Torture a prisoner of war (preferably make him cry and beg for mercy, but do not spare and kill him slowly and horribly. For example, bury him alive or cut him with a chainsaw);
3) Rape or kill an ENEMY girl. The best way to do this is with the whole company.
4) Take trophies from the houses of killed enemies to home for good luck! And for memory!
5) If possible, personally participate in the execution of all prisoners of war. And ideally – drown them in ice holes, stab them with a bayonet, or burn entire families, along with their houses.”
The courage to negotiate with such subhumans? The degree of purity of the Vatican’s holy water must be close to that of stagnant water from a sewage treatment plant.
This man who claims to be Pope of the Catholic Church demonstrates the greatest ignorance of Catholic moral, the observance of which he should be a model for all Catholics. “Thou shalt not steal.” “You shall not covet other people’s goods.” They are two of the basic principles of Christian morality. He has no morals, so he eats like a pig, lives like a pig and will die like a pig… But the fact that he made these statements is an excellent sign for Ukraine. Bergolio is a friend of Putin and these statements show a profound reality: Putin is beginning to tremble on his throne of bayonets…
