Pope Leo XIV Africa Tour Ends

The tour took the Pope through Algeria, Angola, Cameroon, and finally Equatorial Guinea, where he delivered a message of hope and liberation.

Leo used his platform to denounce war in the Middle East and violations of international law by 'neocolonial' powers.

His assertive tone drew the ire of President Trump, who criticized the Pope for not specifically condemning the killing of protesters in Iran.

The trip solidified Leo's image as a global moral authority willing to challenge the world order during a period of growing instability.
