 Pope Leo condemns Gaza suffering in first Christmas sermon

Pope Leo XIV has used his first Christmas Day sermon to denounce the harsh living conditions facing Palestinians in Gaza, drawing a direct link between the biblical story of Jesus’ birth in a stable and the tents now sheltering displaced families. He asked how people could not think of Gaza’s makeshift shelters, exposed for weeks to rain, wind and cold. Leo, the first pope from the United States, usually keeps his Christmas homilies focused on spiritual themes but made an unusually pointed appeal on the situation in Gaza this year. He has repeatedly said that any lasting solution to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict must include the creation of a Palestinian state. The pope noted that, despite a ceasefire agreed in October between Israel and Hamas after two years of intense Israeli military operations, humanitarian groups say too little aid is reaching […]

Zelensky meets Pope, refines response to new US peace plan

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met Pope Leo XIV in Italy as he prepares an updated response to a revised United States plan to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The meeting took place at the Pope’s country residence in Castel Gandolfo near Rome, during a wider European tour focused on talks with allies about war and peace efforts.​ Zelensky said Washington had cut its original 28-point proposal to 20 points after intensive talks with Ukrainian officials over the weekend. He explained that Ukrainian and European negotiators will now work through those 20 points and that Kyiv will send its formal, revised position to the United States soon.​ According to Zelensky, the main obstacles in the US plan involve possible territorial concessions and the level of long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. He stressed that Ukraine has no legal or moral right […]

Pope Leo vows not to be ‘bystander’ to human rights abuses

Pope Leo XIV has declared that he will not allow the Holy See to be a “silent bystander” in the face of human rights abuses and grave injustices around the world.​ Speaking to a group of new ambassadors to the Vatican, the pontiff said the Church cannot stand aside while people suffer from violent conflicts, political repression, deep inequality and violations of fundamental human dignity.​ He stressed that the Holy See will continue to raise its voice on issues such as wars, persecution, poverty and attacks on the rule of law, insisting that peace requires concrete action whenever human dignity is threatened.​ Pope Leo’s comments are seen as part of a broader stance he has taken since his election, which includes strong appeals for a ceasefire in Gaza, condemnation of abuses of power and a call for zero tolerance toward […]

Pope Leo visits Istanbul’s iconic Blue Mosque

Pope Leo XIV has visited Istanbul’s famed Blue Mosque as part of his first foreign trip since becoming head of the Catholic Church. The stop at the 17th‑century Sultan Ahmed Mosque came during a multi‑day visit to Türkiye and Lebanon marking the 1,700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea.​ At the mosque, Turkey’s top religious official from the Diyanet walked the pontiff through the carpeted interior, showing him the soaring blue‑tiled dome and Arabic calligraphy that give the site its global renown. Following the example of his predecessors, Leo removed his shoes and spent a quiet moment in reflection, seen as a gesture of respect toward the country’s Muslim majority.​ The Blue Mosque visit is one of several symbolic moments on a trip focused on dialogue between Christians and Muslims and support for Christian communities in the Middle East.

Pope John Paul II attacker removed from Turkish town

Turkish authorities have removed Mehmet Ali Agca, the man who tried to assassinate Pope John Paul II in 1981, from the town of Iznik ahead of Pope Leo XIV’s visit. Local media reported that Agca had travelled to the northwestern town hoping to briefly meet the new pope during his historic trip.​ Agca, a Turkish national, shot and seriously wounded John Paul II in St Peter’s Square in May 1981 and later received a life sentence in Italy before being transferred to Ankara to complete his term. He was released in 2010 after spending about 29 years in prison.​ In statements from Iznik, Agca said he wanted to “welcome the pope” and expressed hope that they could sit down and talk for a few minutes in Iznik or Istanbul. However, broadcasters including Halk TV said police escorted him out of […]

Pope Leo XIV: Violence in Nigeria Targets Both Christians and Muslims

Pope Leo XIV has stated that both Christians and Muslims are victims of Nigeria’s widespread violence, linking the crisis to extremist groups as well as economic and land-related conflicts. In a widely shared video interview from Castel Gandolfo, the Pope explained that “Christians and Muslims have been slaughtered,” and that danger exists in certain areas for all people, not just one religious group. He identified multiple causes for the bloodshed: “There’s a question of terrorism. There’s a question that has to do a lot with economics, if you will, and control of the lands that they have.” Pope Leo XIV urged the Nigerian government to step up efforts to protect all citizens and promote true religious freedom. The Pope previously referenced Nigeria among the countries where Christians face significant persecution, but emphasized a balanced view, recognizing victims across communities. His […]
