Pope Francis has warned that "we should be humble about what's possible" regarding the ongoing Russian aggression in Ukraine. “We shouldn’t have illusions that the two leaders of the war will go eat together tomorrow," he said.
The Holy Father made his comments on the papal plane on his way back to the Vatican from his recent trip to Marseille. His personal peace envoy, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, has made visits to Kyiv, Moscow, Washington DC, and Beijing, focusing primarily on the humanitarian aspect of the war, including the return of Ukrainian children deported to Russia.
