#Javier #Milei #visits #hugs #Pope #Francis
Pope Francis greeted the president of Argentina, Javier Milei, this Sunday. The meeting took place at the canonization ceremony of “Mama Antula”, which took place in St. Peter’s Basilica. After a brief contact before the event, the first formal and public greeting occurred once the event was over, when the Supreme Pontiff approached the Argentine president, they exchanged a few words and embraced each other, a gesture that surprised the president, according to Infobae.
This mass was the first meeting between the two after Milei during the election campaign described the pope as “the representative of evil on earth,” among other disqualifications. However, the Supreme Pontiff downplayed his words and in fact called him to congratulate him on his electoral victory.
The “libertarian” once elected has been lowering his tone in relation to various topics and characters, among them with the pope. In that context, this Saturday in an interview with Radio Miter he praised him as “the most important Argentine in history,” and said that he hoped to maintain a “very fruitful dialogue” with him.
