Pope Francis, still recovering from a serious case of bilateral pneumonia, made a public appearance for Easter and held a private meeting with US Vice President JD Vance at the Vatican. The meeting was notable for its timing and the contrast in values between the Pope, known for his progressive stances, and Vance, a conservative US politician. Despite their differences, the two reportedly found some common ground during their discussion. The Pope's participation in Easter celebrations, despite recent health scares, underscored his resilience and commitment to his role. This unusual diplomatic encounter highlights ongoing dialogues between the Vatican and US leadership on global issues.
