As quoted in Andrea Gagliarducci, For Cardinal Mamberti, dialogue with Muslims is a must (May 13, 2015) - Dominique Mamberti

(About illegal immigrants) diplomacy must explore all the possible ways so that the human person is respected. Obviously, any initiative must be fostered under international law, and with the major goal to keep peace, as the Holy Father often reiterated: 'Only with peace, can we build the future'.

Je pense que le rôle du pape, c'est de confirmer ses frères dans la foi, et je pense que c'est pour cela qu'il vient : pour dire que la Corse est dans son cœur, et que la vie de l'Église en Corse est importante pour lui, comme la vie de toutes les Églises dans le monde est importante pour lui.

Speaking about a dialogue with Islam is something abstract... we must rather pursue a dialogue with Islamic representatives, believers in Islam, and develop with them, as much as possible, common actions with them in favor of peace and development.
