Pope Leo visits Cameroon with message of peace amid attacks from Trump

What Happened

Pope Leo XIV arrived in Cameroon Wednesday as part of a ten-day African tour, delivering speeches against corruption and calling for peace in the conflict-ridden nation. He previously visited Algeria. His Cameroon visit includes a peace meeting in Bamenda, where separatist forces declared a three-day ceasefire. The pope's statements on migrant rights and criticism of US-Israel relations have drawn attacks from President Trump, who accused him of being weak on crime. Leo responded diplomatically, stating he has no fear of the administration.
