''Winds of war'' blowing around the world - Pope Francis expressed his sadness in his Christmas message.

In the Christmas message, Pope Francis has expressed concern that, tension has gripped many areas of the world. He has stated that winds of war are blowing in many parts of the world. He has made particular mention about those areas of the world, where tension is created by the recent provocative steps taken by the US president, Donald Trump. He has stated that, “ suffering is reflected in the faces of the little children in the Middle East”. This is the area, gripped by tension by the recent announcement of Donald Trump that Jerusalem should be the capital of Israel. The Pope has also prayed for an end to the confrontation escalating in the Korean Peninsula. This is the area, where tension is being built by the US. It is having thousands of atom bombs, sufficient to destroy this world many hundred times. But, it is threatening that the North Korea should not test nuclear bombs.
