Pope Francis has voiced blamed the shortcomings of globalization on the rapid rise of nationalism.Francis did not highlight any specific countries of political parties but reflected on national policies favoring "quick partisan consensus" over patient efforts for the common good.The Pontiff expressed worry that Europe and North America are limiting their acceptance to migrants in his speech to diplomats accredited to the Vatican.
He then added that "partial solutions can't be given to such a universal question."

Francis has been frequent in using his platform to address issues of mass immigration.Francis spoke about the growing nationalist movement in the West due to mass migration from North Africa and the Middle East
Speaking to a broad audience at the Vatican, the Pope said: “Our differences are not a detriment or a danger; they are a source of richness. As when an artist is about to make a mosaic: it is better to have tiles of many colors available, rather than just a few."“The experience of families teaches us this,” he added.“as brothers and sisters, we are all different from each other. We do not always agree, but there is an unbreakable bond uniting us, and the love of our parents helps us to love one another,” he continuedFrancis then addressed the 'side effects' of materialism."Insatiable greed marks all human history, even today, when, paradoxically, a few dine luxuriantly while all too many go without the daily bread needed to survive,” he said.
Pope Francis has continued to preach his globalist "no borders" ethic calling on world leaders to mobilize their energy into "removing the walls of division and to build bridges".Francis continues to repeat “the need to build bridges, not walls” eerily similar to Hillary Clinton's 'George Soros funded' presidential campaign speeches.“Without renouncing prudence,” he said, “we are called to recognize every sign and mobilize all our energy in order to remove the walls of division and to build bridges of fraternity everywhere in the world.”
