Pope and Trump Have Public Disagreement
Pope Leo XIV called for global peace during his Africa trip. He declined to back the war in Iran.

Trump also criticized the Pope on foreign policy. The Pope's criticism of the war angered Trump.
This led to a public feud between the two. Archbishop Paul Coakley said he was saddened by Trump's remarks.
Sarah Mullally, Archbishop of Canterbury, expressed support for Pope Leo XIV's calls for peace. She urged Anglicans to join those calls.
Klear Note — The Pope is the leader of the Catholic Church worldwide. Trump is a political leader in the United States. They disagree on war and foreign policy.
