"I think this moment requires everyone to pray for peace, and not to put ourselves one against the other, but to work for national unity. Christians do not feel adequately protected, but they understand the difficulties in preventing acts of terrorism. In seven days the Coptic Orthodox will celebrate Christmas. I hope that this Christian community may celebrate the holiday in tranquility, peace and joy."
