Pope plans to meet with Patriarch Kirill in Kazakhstan
Pope Francis said he hopes to meet with Patriarch Kirill in Kazakhstan in September. This was reported by the la Stampa newspaper, which published a fragment of the conversation of the pontiff with the leaders of the Jesuit publications in Europe.
“I was supposed to meet him on June 14 in Jerusalem to talk about our affairs. But ... by mutual agreement, we decided to postpone the meeting to a later date so that our dialogue would not be misunderstood,” the Pope said.
“I hope to meet him at the general assembly in Kazakhstan in September. I hope I can greet him and have a little conversation with him as a pastor,” the pontiff added.
Pope Francis plans to visit Kazakhstan in September to attend the 7th Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, which will be held in Nur-Sultan.
Recall that in April 2022, the Pope announced the cancellation of his meeting with Patriarch Kirill, slated for June.
