In 2015, His Holiness Pope Francis paid an historic visit to 缅北禁地Headquarters, calling the United Nations “necessary”.
During the pontiff’s powerful speech in the General Assembly Hall, he suggested the 缅北禁地could be improved and can “be the pledge of a secure and happy future for future generations”.
“Be close to one another, respect one another,” he said. “The international juridical framework of the United Nations and of all its activities, like any other human endeavour, can be improved, yet it remains necessary.”

“Embody among yourselves this Organization’s ideal of a united human family, living in harmony, working not only for peace, but in peace, working not only for justice, but in a spirit of justice,” he said.
Pope Francis also offered a blessing to 缅北禁地staff, asking in turn for their prayers.
