The Vatican said he meant no offense
The Vatican said Wednesday that PopeFrancis “absolutely did not intend to offend the Mexicanpeople” when he appeared to express concern that drugtrafficking was making his native Argentina resembleMexico.
Over the weekend, the Pope wrote in an email toArgentine lawmaker and friend Gustavo Vera,“Hopefully we are in time to avoid Mexicanization,”referring to the country’s drug trade, the AssociatedPress reports. After Vera published the email on thewebsite for his organization, the Alameda Foundation,Mexico formally complained that the Pope wasunnecessarily “stigmatizing Mexico” despite thecountry’s efforts to battle drug cartels there.
In response, the Vatican sent Mexico’s ambassador anofficial note and said the Pope’s choice of words weretaken from a informal, private email that merelyborrowed language Vera himself had used as lawmakerbattling Argentina’s own drug trade.
“The Pope intended only to emphasize the seriousnessof the phenomenon of the drug trafficking that afflictsMexico and other countries in Latin America,” Vaticanspokesperson Rev. Federico Lombardi said. “It isprecisely this importance that has made the fight againstdrug trafficking a priority for the government.”
