Pope Leo “very impolite” which is intended for them.
“We must find ways to treat people with humanity”the American pontiff told reporters in English outside his residence in Castel Gandolfo, near Rome. “Each country has the right to determine who can enter, when and how (in the area) »he admitted. But there are people “who have had good lives, many of them for ten, fifteen, twenty years”and who are treated in a certain way “very impolite”he added.
Leo XIV called “everyone in the United States” to hear the message from the American Conference of Catholic Clergy, which in a recent statement called for an end to it “climate of fear” in that country.
“Danger” in Nigeria
The pope since May, Leo XIV, a native of Chicago (Illinois), has become increasingly critical of the policies of the Trump administration.
Pope Francis also spoke about the situation in Nigeria, where the American president threatened military intervention to defend the Christian community. The African country, which is almost evenly divided between the Muslim-majority north and the Christian-majority south, has been hit by conflicts that, according to experts, have resulted in heavy casualties on both sides. Not only in Nigeria “a danger to Christians, but to everyone”said the Pope. “Christians and Muslims massacred”he emphasized.
Leo XIV finally stated to journalists that while he was at his residence in Castel Ganfolfo he would try “a little exercise, a little reading, a little work”. “Body and soul”he added.
