Greece: Pope Francis condemns the “narrow self-interest and nationalism” regarding the manner in which Europe treats its migrants.

While upon the Greek island of Lesbos, The Pope said that the migrants were being framed for selfish political propaganda. He pressed focus on the causes of migration, instead of punishing those who feel the effects of “forgotten wars”. He said taht he was against the building of walls to keep people out.

The Pope said that he finds it tragic that there are people in Europe who think nothing of the problem of the migrants. History has showed us that narrow self-interest and nationalism eventually lead to devastating consequences.

The Pope said that influencing public opinion is easy, and it can be done so by instilling fear of the other. According to him, the causes should be attacked, not the people.

Last month 27 people died when their inflatable boat sank in the Channel between France and the UK.  According to the International Organization for Migration, 1,650 people have gone missing while trying to cross the Mediterranean this year.
