 Pope Leo XIV welcomes US-Iran ceasefire, urges dialogue and prayers for peace

Pope Leo XIV expressed cautious optimism Wednesday over a temporary ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, calling the agreement “a sign of deep hope” during remarks to a crowd in St. Peter’s Square. His comments follow criticism of President Trump’s earlier threat to “destroy a whole civilization” if Iran did not meet U.S. demands by Tuesday evening, which the pope described as morally unacceptable and a serious concern for the Iranian people.
