简介:

In his first Sunday blessing as pope, Leo XIV called for a ceasefire in Gaza, the release of hostages, and peace in Ukraine, echoing the advocacy of his predecessor, Pope Francis. Speaking from St. Peter’s Basilica, Leo urged world leaders to reject war and provide aid to suffering civilians. He also welcomed a ceasefire between India and Pakistan and emphasized his commitment to the Church’s social justice mission, Axios has reported. Formerly Robert Prevost, Leo is seen as a moderate close to Francis in outlook, taking the papacy during a time of global conflict and division.
