Pope Leo XIV has publicly responded after President Donald Trump made baseless claims that the Chicago-born pontiff supports Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
The president doubled down on his attacks on the pope on Monday, claiming that the pope believes that Iran should have nuclear weapons.
“Well, the pope would rather talk about the fact that it’s OK for Iran to have a nuclear weapon, and I don’t think that’s very good,” Trump told Salem News Channel’s Hugh Hewitt, when asked why Leo has not spoken about jailed Hong Kong democracy activist Jimmy Lai.
