(Worthy News) – Pope Francis urged world leaders to use the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to “rethink the relationship between individuals and the economy,” in his annual foreign policy address to the Holy See diplomatic corps on Monday.
The Pope called for the economy to be reoriented, so as to be put “at the service of men and women, not vice versa,” and likened the change to a “kind of ‘new Copernican revolution.’”
The economic ramifications of global lockdowns instated by governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic provided a “helpful opportunity” for a fairer market economy to emerge, he said in his speech to 183 ambassadors accredited to the Holy See, which was supposed to take place on Jan. 25 but had to be postponed due to his recent bout of sciatica.
