The Vatican resumed today its campaign for the internationalization of Jerusalem and the Holy Places in Palestine.
Observatore Romano, the Vatican’s newspaper, prominently displayed a statement by Dr. Gaspare Ambrosini, well known Italian jurist, that the world was disregarding Christian interest in the Holy Places while it concentrated its attention on the Arab-Israel conflict. He asserted that even the United Nation’s advocacy of the internationalization of Jerusalem had been disregarded.
Judge Ambrosini called for a solution only of the question of the Holy Places, expressing the hope that such action might help reunify the Christian churches.
