Addressing the Organization of American States (OAS), a Vatican diplomat expressed solidarity with the victims of Hurricane Melissa and support for strife-torn Haiti.
Msgr. Juan Antonio Cruz Serrano added that he “considers commendable the task of international and regional organizations, such as the OAS, in raising awareness among governments and civil society about the abuses committed against nature and in promoting mechanisms aimed at fulfilling the non-delegable duty to preserve the environment and the natural resources of each country.”
