In his first Easter Vigil, Pope Leo XIV urged the world not to grow numb to the ongoing wars, particularly criticizing the invocation of divine justification for violence. He addressed U.S. policies regarding the Iran conflict, imploring President Trump to seek peaceful resolutions rather than continuing military actions. Pope Leo emphasized that God does not listen to the prayers of leaders who wage war and called for unity, peace, and hope amidst global tensions. His remarks included a pointed challenge against narratives that misconstrue faith in support of warfare, seeking to inspire Catholics and leaders alike to prioritize harmony and compassion.
