HOLY FATHER RECEIVES PRIME MINISTER OF ROMANIA

VATICAN CITY, NOV 7, 2007 (VIS) - At midday today, Holy See Press Office Director Fr. Federico Lombardi S.J. confirmed that following this morning's general audience held in St. Peter's Square, the Pope received Calin Popescu Tariceanu, prime minister of Romania.

  During the brief meeting, said Fr. Lombardi, the Romanian prime minister thanked the Holy Father for what both he and the Church do to welcome immigrants and to educate people in tolerance, and for the words to that effect pronounced by the Pope at last Sunday's Angelus when he underlined the importance of welcome and security. The prime minister also expressed the hope that such a positive attitude should continue.
