Pope Leo XIV speaks off the cuff against Trump’s new war in Iran and calls for peace in the Middle East:

“I’m deeply concerned, and we don’t know how many days it will last, about the situation in the Middle East,” he said.

“War again! And we must be heralds of Jesus’ peace, which God desires for everyone! We must pray much for peace, live in unity, and reject the temptation to harm others; violence is never the right choice.”
