Pope Leo XIV today welcomed the announcement of a two-week ceasefire in the Iran war with “satisfaction.”
The pontiff, who has been an outspoken critic of the war, also hailed the pause in fighting as a sign of “hope.”
It comes after Leo on Tuesday said that threats against the people of Iran are “truly unacceptable,” hours after US President Donald Trump had warned Tehran that a “whole civilization will die tonight.”
