| Prince Charles also discussed the work of his charity The Prince's Trust in combatting radicalisation |
In an interview with Radio 2's The Sunday Hour, Prince Charles spoke of his hopes to "build bridges" between different faiths.
He also spoke of his "deep concern" for the suffering of Christian churches in the Middle East.
He is currently in Jordan on a six-day tour of the region.
The prince arrived in the capital Amman on Saturday night and is due to hold talks with King Abdullah II later.
The Radio 2 programme covers visits by the prince to Armenian, Roman Catholic Chaldean and Syrian Orthodox churches in the UK, and contains accounts from members of these denominations who have had to flee persecution in Syria and Iraq.
On the radicalisation of young people, Prince Charles says: "Well of course, this is one of the greatest worries I think, and the extent to which this is happening is the alarming part.
"And particularly in a country like ours where you know the values we hold dear.
"You think that the people who have come here, [are] born here, go to school here, would abide by those values and outlooks."
He told the BBC programme he believed part of the reason some young people are radicalised is a "search for adventure and excitement at a particular age". » | Saturday, February 07, 2015
