Archbishop Ruggero Franceschini, 71, from 6 years Latin archbishop of Izmir, is blunt: after the martyrdom of Archbishop. Luigi Padovese the Church in Turkey is devastated and hurt, but more united. Catholics, Orthodox, Armenians, Chaldeans are more fraternal. The outspoken bishop is also another aspect: the Church in Turkey wants to know "the whole truth and nothing but the truth" about the motives of the assassin of Msgr. Padovese. The Church does not believe the Turkish murder of a sexual nature, or "pious lie" of mental illness Murat Altun. He knows that the killing took place following an Islamic ritual, but behind this apparent there's fanaticism. Especially since the murderer has never been a devout Muslim. Mgr Franceschini hypothesized that the assassination was designed with precision, the killer for well educated, and sponsors must have the purpose to destabilize the country and removal of Turkey from Europe.
With the clarity that distinguishes it, he asks the universal Church of Rome and the show closer to Church of Turkey with intelligence and effective solidarity. It makes an appeal for volunteers, teachers, nuns and religious, go on mission in Turkey, mainly to keep open the few Catholic schools.
