Pope calls for 'mutual respect' between religions in Syria

Pope Francis called Wednesday for "mutual respect" between religions in Syria, three days after rebels in a lightning offensive toppled the country's longtime president Bashar al-Assad.

"I pray... that the Syrian people may live in peace and security in their beloved land and the different religions may walk together in friendship and mutual respect for the good of that nation afflicted by so many years of war," Francis said during his weekly general audience.
