Pope Leo XIV has clarified that his recent criticisms in a speech regarding 'tyrants' were not aimed at Donald Trump. While addressing reporters during his Africa tour, he emphasized that his comments were made well in advance of any interactions with Trump, dismissing the notion that he was attempting to engage in a debate.
This follows Trump's recent attacks on the Pope regarding foreign policy, leading to a complex narrative surrounding their relationship. U.S. Vice-President JD Vance expressed gratitude for the Pope's clarification, highlighting the media's role in inflating conflicts.
