Pope Says Europe Must Be a Federal Community; Otherwise It Won't Count for Anything in World

Pope Francis has been reported as saying that Europe "must become a federal community or it will no longer count for anything in the world," the Christian Today website reports on July 12, 2017.

His comments were made in an interview with Eugenio Scalfari, the 93-year-old founder of the Italian newspaper La Repubblica.

Francis said he was afraid of "very dangerous alliances among [foreign] powers that have a distorted vision of the world: America and Russia, China and North Korea..."

The pope added: "The countries [of Europe] will act if they recognize one truth: either Europe becomes a federal community or it will no longer count for anything in the world."
