CWN Editor's Note: Pope Leo XIV met recently for 30 minutes with Ukrainian civilians who were taken to Russia and then released from captivity.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), who was recent at the meeting, said that “Pope Leo is a true moral force for peace and justice and a champion for children around the world. It was an honor to meet him as part of our mission to bring home the Ukrainian children abducted by Russia and chart a path towards peace and healing for Ukraine.”
