Pope Leo XIV Urges Dignity for Workers During Politically Charged Argentina Visit
He said artificial intelligence and unregulated automation can threaten jobs and integral human development.
- On Monday, Pope Leo XIV emphasized human dignity during an address to social movements at the Catholic University of Buenos Aires, insisting that promoting the common good requires overcoming sterile individualism.
- Critics interpreted the address as a rebuke to Argentine President Javier Milei's libertarian agenda, reflecting political tensions that shaped the Pope's visit to Argentina.
- Informal labor has climbed to 45% from 41% under Milei's tenure, and the Pope quoted Pope Francis's 'tierra, techo y trabajo' — land, housing and work — to emphasize social justice.
- Authorities recently provided about $535,000 to the Cottolengo Don Orione, a 'city of charity' housing more than 400 people, yet the payment covers only four of the 12 months owed.
- The Vatican estimated 2.5 million people attended the Pope's first Mass in Argentina, the largest crowd of his papacy, as the visit recalled the Saints and Blesseds who shaped the nation's spiritual heritage.
