Pope Francis, left, and Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill exchange a joint declaration on religious unity in Havana, Cuba on Feb. 12, 2016. The head of the Polish bishops’ conference had done what Pope Francis has so far avoided doing by publicly condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Archbishop Stanislaw Gadecki also publicly urged the head of the Russian Orthodox Church to use his influence on Vladimir Putin to demand an end to the war and for Russian soldiers to stand down. “The time will come to settle these crimes, including before the international courts," Gadecki warned in his March 2 letter to Patriarch Kirill.
