Vatican raises alarm over risk of wider Middle East conflict amid preventive war logic

The Vatican warns that reliance on preventive war risks global escalation and urges restraint.

Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican Secretary of State, has warned that the world risks "going up in flames" if states continue to embrace the logic of preventive war, highlighting concerns over military escalation in the Middle East. The Vatican rejects the use of preventive war to justify the destruction of missile facilities, arguing that such actions must remain the last resort within a multilateral framework. The cardinal cautions that a multipolar order dominated by power politics is undermining diplomacy and raising the risk of a broader regional conflict.
