The bishop responsible for the episcopal migration commission: “There is a lot of fear, a lot of ideology, a lot of ‘fake news’”
Fernando García Cadiñanos criticizes “power games” and the current economic system: “They are in the background of the suffering and death of many people”
Bishop Fernando García Cadiñanos briefly delayed an interview to respond to a call from a friend about a news story that made him laugh. As president of a subcommittee of the Spanish Episcopal Conference (CEE), he speaks out on issues like the reception and regularization of immigrants. García Cadiñanos comments that the root of migration lies in the indignity of the world being built, driven by the economic system, commercial relations, and power struggles that cause suffering and death. The bishop highlights that these underlying factors contribute to the plight of many people.
