Pope Leo XIV Africa Tour
The Pope's visit to Equatorial Guinea presents a significant diplomatic challenge as he meets with Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, the world's longest-serving president.
Leo XIV has used his maiden African journey to advocate for social justice, peace, and the care of the poor.
He also paid a heartfelt tribute to the late Pope Francis on the first anniversary of his death.
The trip has been marked by the Pope's increasingly forceful speaking style regarding authoritarianism and economic inequality.
