I am a believer; I believe in the strength Pope Francis receives from God to act for the good of all, Novak told Il Messaggero newspaper, quoted by local media.

The Pope wants to talk to everyone; I hope the time will come when he will play a decisive role in the peace process. I trust in rapid changes, the head of State pointed out.

Novak stated that Cardinal Matteo Guppi’s mission to Kiev, Moscow, and Washington, and his possible trip to Beijing would bring results.
