Pope John Paul has Called for a "New International Order"
Pope John Paul, 83, made his New Year's Day speech at mass in St Peter's Basilica. The Pontiff called for a "new international order" to solve the worlds problems and to maintain peace.
The Pope said: "More than ever we need a new international order which draws on the experience and results of the United Nations. An order which is capable of finding adequate solutions to today's problems."
The American led Iraq war dominated the speech, and the Pope urged people not to give up hope of peace. "...We need to persevere and not bow to the temptation of losing hope."
