US Vice President JD Vance has revealed that he has “thought a lot about” the fact he saw the Pope only the day before the pontiff died, describing the Easter encounter “as a great blessing”.
JD Vance was among the last officials to meet with an ailing Pope Francis before he died on Easter Monday. Vance spoke about the 20 April encounter with reporters in Agra, India, while on a four-day visit with his wife, Usha, the first Hindu-American second lady, reports the Catholic News Agency (CNA).
When asked about that now seemingly providential meeting on the morning of Easter Sunday, Vance said he had “thought a lot about that”.
