Pope Francis is urging governments to find a political solution to the war in Syria as part a new campaign.

Caritas Internationalis, a global network of Catholic international aid and development agencies, is launching the Syria: Peace is Possible campaign with a video featuring the Pope.

“I would like to address all the faithful and all of those who work with Caritas to build a just society,” said Pope Francis in the video message.

He added that “peace is possible in Syria.” and that “everyone has to recognise that there is no military solution for Syria, only a political one.”
