‘Never Again War!’ – Pope Leo XIV Calls for ‘Just and Lasting Peace’ in Ukraine

  • During his inaugural Sunday noon blessing from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, Pope Leo XIV expressed deep concern for Ukraine and urged efforts toward a fair and enduring peace.
  • The Pope made his remarks shortly after being elected on a Thursday, succeeding Pope Francis who died in late April and had promoted peace with a less firm tone on Ukraine.
  • He described global conflicts as a "third world war in pieces," demanded a ceasefire and humanitarian aid in Gaza, expressed solidarity with Ukraine's suffering, and called Moscow's invasion a "real imperialist invasion."
  • The new pontiff proclaimed "Never again war!" and pledged to continue his predecessor's legacy using stronger language that echoes Kyiv's stance on the conflict.
  • These statements indicate a more assertive papal approach emphasizing immediate peace efforts and humanitarian action amid ongoing international conflicts.
