VATICAN CITY - The Vatican's point man on migration and social justice on Monday urged EU citizens who might be tempted to vote for far-right parties in this week's European Parliament elections to remain sympathetic towards migrants and refugees.
Voters should put themselves in the shoes of migrants and realise that they too would want to look for a better life in Europe, Cardinal Michael Czerny, head of the Vatican's human development office, told reporters. Czerny was responding to a question on whether he was worried by EU election far-right gains at a press conference that unveiled a papal message for the Catholic Church's World Day of Migrants and Refugees, falling on Sept. 29.
