Pope Benedict XVI has sent Cardinal Peter Turkson to Ivory Coast to
"express my solidarity and that of the universal Church" to the
victims of a continuing struggle for power in the African country.
Cardinal Turkson, the president of the Pontifical Council for Justice
and Peace, has been charged by the Pope to seek an end to the fighting
between the supporters of two rival leaders: Alasanne Ouattara, who
was certified by UN officials as the winner of presidential elections
last November; and Laurent Gbagbo, the incumbent president, who has
refused to surrender his power.
Pope Benedict told his March 30 public audience that he has been
preoccupied with the battle in Ivory Coast, a country "traumatized by
painful internal strife and serious social and political tensions." He
pleaded for an end to the violence—which the November elections had
been designed to resolve. "No effort should be spared" to stop the
bloodshed, the Pope said.
