Twelve days have passed since the United States, together with Israel, attacked Iran, and the escalation in the Middle East has only continues to intensify. The only cardinal the Persian country has, the Archbishop of Tehran, Dominique Mathieu, is already in Rome.
This morning he had the opportunity to meet with Pope Leo XIV after the Pope presided over the Wednesday general audience in St. Peter’s Square. The Belgian cardinal belongs to the Conventual Franciscan Friars and arrived in Italy on March 8, crossing through the border of Azerbaijan with a group of about 50 people from the Italian Embassy.
