Vatican City (Agenzia Fides) – After the General Audience today, Wednesday, September 15, held in the Paul VI Hall at the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI issued the following appeal for respect for religious freedom, reconciliation, and peace in South Asia:“I have been following with concern the events that have taken place these days in several regions of South Asia, especially in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
