BUENOS AIRES (ACI/EWTN Noticias) - En declaraciones al diario argentino ClarĂn, la hermana Yvonne Pierron, ahora de 85 años, recordĂł que "Bergoglio nos ayudĂł mucho, se ocupĂł del caso y tomĂł contacto con la Embajada francesa".
La religiosa, que tiene una foto del Ché Guevara junto a su Biblia, recordó que "me alegré cuando lo eligieron. Primero, porque es latinoamericano, y que sea argentino me llena de orgullo, porque él ha sido un luchador para que todos seamos iguales".
La religiosa, nacida en Alsacia -entonces en Alemania y hoy en Francia- radica actualmente en la aldea guaranĂ Ojo de Agua, en Argentina.
Yvonne Pierron ingresó a las Misiones Extranjeras a los 17 años, llegando a Argentina en 1955.
Al llegar a Argentina y encontrar la dictadura pensĂł que "Hitler está acá, porque lleguĂ© despuĂ©s del golpe militar. Yo me acuerdo haber visto, justamente en la Plaza de Mayo, lo que vi en mi paĂs durante la ocupaciĂłn alemana de Francia: a los caballos adiestrados para matar a la gente con las patas".
