The Pope’s voice cracked as he mentioned the suffering of the Ukrainian people and he trembled as he was forced to stop for around 30 seconds.

I would have liked to have brought to you today the thanksgiving of the Ukrainian people for the peace we have long been asking the Lord for," Francis said.
"Instead, I still have to present to you the supplication of the children, of the elderly, of the fathers and mothers, of the young people of that tormented land."
