Bangui - Politicians of the Central African Republic committed to build peace in the country in a letter delivered to Pope Francis at the end of his visit to the country that was released Tuesday.

  "The Central African political class, and in particular the candidates in the presidential election, meeting in Bangui November 27, 2015, at the initiative of the Community of Sant'Egidio, on the eve of the visit of His Holiness Pope Francis, turn to him a warm message Welcome to Bangui, capital of Central African Republic.”

  ”We want to thank His Holiness for having maintained this visit to Central Africa in the program, despite all the concerns about its safety.”

  ”We are convinced that this visit constitutes a fundamental point of history towards reconciliation in the country.”

  ”We make a commitment to get involved in order to return to the constitutional legality and provide a stable peace in the Central African Republic," the statement said.
