US President Donald Trump has taken aim at Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, questioning Italy’s support for the conflict in the Middle East. President Trump also criticised Pope Leo, claiming the pontiff has “no idea” when it comes to the war and Iran’s nuclear threat. The remarks come as Pope Leo led Mass in Algeria, where he asked worshippers to treat others as they would themselves, saying charity must guide responses to poverty and oppression. Tensions between the Vatican and the White House deepen as the pontiff continues to criticise the war.
