Pope Francis said Sunday he was still working on arranging a meeting with the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, despite that leader's seeming justification for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Pope Francis greets the journalists onboard the papal plane during the flight back to Rome at the end of his two-day apostolic visit to Malta, Sunday, April 3, 2022.
Kirill has called for peace and for civilians to be spared but has seemingly justified Russia’s invasion by casting it as a “metaphysical” battle with the West and its “gay parades." His insistence that Russians and Ukrainians are “one people” is echoed by Russian President Vladimir Putin. He paid tribute to the reporters who have died covering the conflict, saying they were providing a courageous service for the common good.
