Pope Leo urges concessions for peace as Ukraine war drags on
- Pope Leo XIV concludes his Apostolic Journey with a visit to Metz, the northeastern hometown of Robert Schuman, a Venerable and founder of the European Union.
- Born in 1886, Schuman served as French Foreign Minister and in 1950 proposed the European Coal and Steel Community to prevent weapons production among Six nations after the Second World War.
- Jean Pirnay, a Franciscan Secular, said "It's a visit from one Robert to another Robert," highlighting shared respect for humanity and humility between the two figures.
- The Diocese of Metz actively promotes Schuman's cause for beatification as a Venerable. Secretary General Emmanuel Crampon described him as "a man of actions" implementing peace-building decisions.
- Schuman's 1960 book For Europe reflects his conviction that "serving humanity is a duty." His involvement with the Catholic student association Unitas and Pope Leo XIII's 1891 encyclical Rerum Novarum shaped his vision for a united continent.
