At one point in the interview, Pope Francis was asked about the endurance and longevity of "multilateral organizations" — and whether they are able to affect peace. Notably, the pontiff spoke about the role of the United Nations and dismissed the organization as powerless.
"After World War II, trust was placed in the United Nations. It is not my intention to offend anybody, I know there are very good people working there, but at this point, the UN has no power to assert its authority," the pope said.
