7:20 am
he says the trip will help put funds this reach out to him and all of his name is russia and china. hey, francis is very much a man who is concerned about the peripheries of the church. and he is not so concerned about, well established catholic areas, like for instance, a milan and easily openness initially, or a big hispanic catholic population in los angeles in the united states. he's concerned about the people who leave on the edges if you like. so he really is trying to give voice to people on the periphery. he also has a great interest in asia. he is really concerned why catholics a very much in a minority of christians, a very much in a minority issue with the exception of the philippines and he's very much concerned . the guy also have a voice. mongolia sits geographically right between china and russia. he's

7:24 am
so now has denied any wrong doing kind of his government has launched a new campaign to try and stem fill of migrants through one of the most dangerous places in the world. the diary and gab record numbers of people are trying to cross the difficult jungle terrain with drug traffic is operate. panama says it's struggling to process the influx of people into pollution that they leaving behind alessandro around to get a report from diarrhea and province. another day, another record number of arrivals at this migrant center on the edge of the diarrhea and jungle of exhausted men. women and children given line to get registered by pennsylvania, no tories most have come from venezuela, haiti, or cuba. others have travelled from us far away as trying in sudan, hoping to reach the united states. some can barely stand after suffering injuries in their treacherous journey. those with the $40.00 for a bus, stick it to the board, the with cost that week i get ready to leave. others like engine link castillo,
7:25 am

7:26 am
we're trying to do it in the most responsible way. but we're also inviting the rest of the countries in both the origin transit countries like ours and the destination to jointly share responsibilities. in april, the united states, platinum on colombia agreed to try and crack down on the smuggling rings. that brings the migrants through the jungle. that's part of my sense that due to a lack of information sharing and have joint action, i'm part of the columbia. nothing that's happened us to some migrants here. say they didn't understand how dangerous the trick was going to be. inborn others. i certainly believe susan's asians, african people from one of these don't take this risk. i think that some of us make it through and of been good enough to do it. so problem getting shots, everything in the general control, you know, certainly but clean conflict and the dream of a better life, remain irresistible for many migrants, ready to risk it all in a crisis that continues to grow. allison the bit,
