Pope Francis has condemned the rejection of migrants as a 'grave sin,' urging for humane treatment and expanded legal entry routes. During his weekly audience at St. Peter's Square, he criticized systematic efforts to push back migrants and called for a global governance based on justice and solidarity. Francis emphasized that migrants should not be left to die in dangerous conditions, such as crossing the Mediterranean Sea, which he described as a 'cemetery.' His comments have sparked backlash from supporters of former President Donald Trump, who accused the pope of appeasing globalists and being hypocritical given the Vatican's own walls. Despite criticisms, Francis maintains that the moral duty to aid migrants aligns with biblical teachings and Catholic doctrine.
