Pope Lav once again criticized the attacks on Iran: Enough of idolizing oneself and money, enough of the delusion of omnipotence.

During evening prayers at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Pope Leo XIV called on political leaders to "stop and negotiate for peace," at a time when, according to available information, the United States and Iran have begun direct talks in Pakistan, while a fragile truce continues.

Although he did not directly mention the United States or President Donald Trump in his prayer, analysts assess that through his tone and messages, the Pope indirectly criticized the American administration, which in the previous period emphasized military superiority and justified war moves with religious arguments.

"Enough idolizing oneself and money!" Pope Leo XIV urged. "Enough showing off power! Enough war!"
