KOSOVO: MSGR. GJERGJI (APOSTOLIC AMMINISTRATOR) "NOW IT’S TIME FOR FORGIVENESS AND RECONCILIATION" (2)

Then, Msgr. Gjergji depicted the role of the Catholic Church in Kosovo: "building a bridge between two entities, the Islamism of the Albanians and the Christians, who are mostly Serbian Orthodox. We are making efforts to pay the highest possible contribution to create good conditions for dialogue. With that purpose, we encourage all the people living in Kosovo to live together peacefully". "Only by means of dialogue among Churches, religions and peoples, it is possible to create and keep the mosaic of groups of peoples, religions, several languages and traditions in Kosovo and in the whole region", he confirmed. "Our opinion on the future of Kosovo is unchanged. We confirm that forgiveness and reconciliation are the only way to be followed. The will of the majority must be respected. And this will must be supported by all the external and internal factors, to foster peace in this region of Europe. Furthermore, we are going on making efforts for both the energy of the single and the collective energy of the majority to be justified by the natural right to self-determination, just to the extent in which such energies are used to guarantee responsibility for the security of minorities, whether they are religious or national minorities. Constant security depends on law and peace", he concluded. ” ” ” “
