Cancerul Papei Leon este un „moment de cotitură”, spune șeful diplomației de la Vatican
The Vatican's foreign minister described Pope Leon's lung cancer diagnosis as a turning point for the perception of his health and papacy. Following surgery, the Pope's cancer was localized and did not spread, eliminating the need for further treatment. Gallagher noted that Leon's relatively young age and good health led some to view him as a 'Superman' figure. The illness has reminded many that the Pope is mortal. Gallagher also commented on the recent ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, clarifying that the Vatican was not involved in negotiations. He acknowledged the challenges of the Vatican's agreement with China regarding bishop appointments, emphasizing the commitment to ongoing dialogue despite its imperfections.
