Vatican foreign minister, in Moscow, says Ukraine war must end

Vatican official Archbishop Paul Gallagher met Russian FM Sergey Lavrov in Moscow — the first in-person Vatican‑Russia talks in five years.
Gallagher urged an urgent end to the 4½‑year Ukraine war, saying ongoing fighting creates new victims and makes reconciliation harder.
The two agreed to cooperate on humanitarian issues (including care for children) and the Vatican offered to support dialogue toward peace.
