In Spain, Pope Leo focuses on opposition to war and help to migrants
Pope Leo XIV's week-long visit is well underway. The pontiff's schedule included an unprecedented address to the Spanish parliament, during which he voiced opposition to increased European military spending. Leo also met with several survivors of abuse by Catholic clergy in Spain, and called on bishops to offer survivors reparations, as he seeks to address a scandal that has severely marred the local Church's credibility.
