CWN Editor's Note: Pope Leo XIV received Rafael Mariano Grossi, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, in a September 5 audience.

Grossi said that he discussed the agency’s efforts toward “global [nuclear] non-proliferation, including Iran and nuclear safety in Ukraine.” Grossi added that he was “inspired” by the Pope’s “message of a peace that is unarmed and disarming, humble and persevering.”
