The Pope criticized the US actions in Iran. In particular, he called US threats to the Iranian people unacceptable. In early April, the pontiff, after urging U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to pray for the troops, said in a homily that the desire to dominate is not in line with the way of Jesus Christ.

“I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have nuclear weapons. I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela, a country that has been sending huge amounts of drugs to the United States and worse, releasing from its prisons, including murderers, drug traffickers and killers, into our country. And I don’t want a Pope who criticizes the President of the United States,” the American leader wrote on the Truth Social network.

Trump also stated that “the Lion would not be at the Vatican” if he were not in the White House.

“He wasn’t on any list of candidates for pope, and the only reason the church put him on there is because he’s an American and they felt that would be the best way to deal with … Donald Trump,” the US president opined.

The US president also urged the pope to stop catering to “radical leftists” and “focus on being a great pope, not a politician”.

A few hours later, Donald Trump in the same social network published his image in the form of Jesus Christ healing the sick.
