Pope Leo Slams War 'Tyrants'

Pope Leo XIV used his platform in the conflict-hit city of Bamenda to deliver a sharp critique of global leaders fueling military aggression.

The pontiff lamented that billions are being spent on 'killing and devastation' rather than healthcare and education, describing the current state of the world as being 'ravaged by tyrants.' These comments follow a series of attacks from President Donald Trump, who recently labeled the Pope 'weak on crime.' Leo’s message of peace in Cameroon’s separatist epicenter is seen as a direct challenge to the Trump administration’s foreign policy.
