This is the first time in the history of the Catholic Church in the history of two thousand years when an American Pope has been chosen. The first American Pope Leo of the Catholic Church has criticized the policies and statements of 14th US President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance on social media. The first prayer meeting of Pope Leo 14 was held on Friday in which he participated in Systin Chappell with all the cardinals who chose him the successor of Pope Francis. Wearing a white costume, Leo went ahead in the Systeine Chapel when he reached the Vedi (Alter) and Michael Angelo’s ‘The Last Judgment’, he blessed all the cardinals.
Trump posted a picture made from an artificial intelligence (AI) during the official mourning after the death of Pope Francis in which he was seen in the Pope’s dress. This act of Trump created a stir in the Vatican and former Italian Prime Minister Romano Product described it as unfair political intervention in matters of faith. Last month, the ‘US Conference of Catholic Bishops’ ended the 50 -year partnership with the US government to serve refugees and migrant children. The decision was taken by the Trump administration after a sudden financial assistance. Most of the social media posts of Pope Leo are related to the Catholic Church and its aspects. He rarely gives his personal opinion, but has several times criticized the policies that limit the entry of migrants and refugees into the US.
