After speaking with the Pope, the President of Uruguay had met after the Cardinal Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone and Monsignor Dominique Mamberti, Secretary for relations with States. “The cordial talks – referring a statement from the Vatican Press Office – have allowed an exchange of information and reflections on socio‑political situation of the country and its role in the region. In this regard were addressed themes of common interest, such as the integral development of the person, respect for human rights, justice and social peace. Did not fail to recognise the contribution made by the Catholic Church to the public debate on these issues, as well as to international peace, as well as his service to the entire society, especially within educational and welfare “. After the meeting, said the Director of the Holy See Press Office, father Federico Lombardi, the Pope said he was “very happy to have met a wise man”.
