Pope Francis' press conference during the papal flight on Sunday, July 2. Father Lombardi: (Originally in Italian)Now, dear friends, we have the joy of having with us on this return flight, the Holy Father Francis.
He’s been kind enough to give us a lengthy amount of time to make an assessment of the trip with us and respond to your questions with total liberty. I give him the floor for a small introduction and then we’ll begin with the list of those who registered to speak and we’ll select them from different national and linguistic groups. Now, to you, Holiness, a word to start. Pope Francis: (Originally in Italian)Good evening and thank you so much.
I am content. It’s been a good trip. Spiritually, it’s been good for me. I’m rather tired, but with a happy heart. And, I am [doing] well..
It did me good spiritually. Meeting people is good for you because the Lord works in each one of us. He works in the heart, and the richness of the Lord is so great that we can always receive so many good things from others. And this is good for me. This, as a first assessment.
Then, I would say that the kindness, the heart of the Brazilian people is great. It’s true, it’s great. It is such a kind people, a people that loves celebration, that even in suffering always finds a way to seek the good someplace. And this is good.
It is a happy people, the people that has suffered much! The joy of Brazilians is contagious.
Amid a flurry of media reaction, the Vatican has released a full transcript of the remarks Pope Francis made to journalists while on a flight back to Rome from Rio de.
It’s contagious! And it has a huge heart, this people. Then I would say of the organizers, from our part as well as that of the Brazilians – but I felt I was before of a computer, an incarnated computer - but truly, everything went like clockwork, didn’t it? But [it was] wonderful. Then we had problems with the hypothesis of [the] security [presence]. Security here and there. There wasn’t an incident in all of Rio de Janeiro in these days, and everything was spontaneous. With less security, I was able to be with the people, to embrace them, to greet them, without armored cars..
It’s the security of trusting a people. It’s true that there is always the danger that there might be a madman there.
Yes, that there might be a madman who does something, but there is also the Lord! But, to put an armored space between the Bishop and the people is madness, and I prefer this madness: [to be] outside and to run the risk of the other madness. I prefer this madness, [of being] outside. Closeness is good for everyone.
Then, the organization of the [World Youth] Day, nothing specific, but everything. The artistic part, the religious part, the catechetical part, the liturgical part … it was very beautiful! They have a [real] capacity to express themselves in art. Yesterday, for example, they did beautiful, beautiful things!
Then, Aparecida. (1) Aparecida is for me a strong religious experience. I remember the Fifth Conference. I was there to pray.. I wanted to go alone, a bit hidden, but there was an impressive crowd! But, it isn't possible [to be hidden]. I knew that before I arrived. And we prayed, we [did].

Thank you for having done this. Watch Never Back Down Putlocker. Then, the number, the number of young people. Today – I can’t believe it – but today the Governor spoke of three million. I can’t believe it.
But [what I saw] from the altar, that’s true! I don’t know if you, some of you were at the altar. From the altar, at the end, the entire beach was full all the way to the curve, more than four kilometers. But, [there were] so many young people. And they say, Archbishop Tempesta (2) told me, they were from 1. The Vice- President also gave me this number.
That’s certain. It’s important! Huge! Father Lombardi: (Originally in Italian)Thank you. Now, we'll give the floor first to Juan de Lara, who is from the EFE [news agency]. And, he's a Spaniard, and it’s the last trip he'll be making with us, so we are happy to give him this opportunity. Juan de Lara: (Originally in Spanish)Holiness, good evening. On behalf of all our colleagues, we want to thank you for these days you've given us in Rio de Janeiro, the work you have done, and the effort it has taken.
And, also in the name of all the Spanish journalists, we want to thank you for your prayers for the victims of the train accident in Santiago de Compostela. Thank you very much. And, the first question, it doesn’t have much to do with the trip, but we are taking advantage of the occasion that gives us this possibility, and I wanted to ask you, Holiness, in these four months of pontificate we've seen you create several commissions to reform the Vatican Curia. I would like to ask you, what type of reform do you have in mind? Do you contemplate the possibility of suppressing the IOR, the so- called Vatican Bank?
Thank you. Pope Francis: (Originally in Spanish)The steps I have been taking in these four- and- a- half months, come from two streams or sources: the content of what had to be done all comes from the source of the General Congregations that we cardinals had. They were things that we cardinals asked from he who would be the new Pope. I remember that I asked for many things, thinking of someone else. That is, we were asking, this has to be done … for instance, the commission of eight cardinals, we know that it’s important to have an outside consultation, not the consultations that are held, but from the outside.
