The official Vatican page contains the quoted passage verbatim with the omissions restored: 'I urge the global community of nations to work together in order to adopt a binding international treaty...'; 'The goal of regulation... should not only be the prevention of harmful practices but also the encouragement of best practices...'; and 'including the poor, the powerless and others who often go unheard...'. The page attributes the message to Pope Francis and dates it 'From the Vatican, 8 December 2023.'

Disputed
Disputed. The Vatican source is a genuine message of Pope Francis for the 2024 World Day of Peace and it does contain the treaty/regulation language plus a separate phrase about “the vulnerable.” However, the supplied text is not a single verbatim excerpt from that source: the “the vulnerable ...” fragment appears earlier in the document, while the “binding ... treaty” and “The goal of regulation ...” lines appear later, so the quote is a reordered composite rather than an exact quotation as presented. The document itself is dated 8 December 2023, for 1 January 2024.
