Robert Francis Prevost Martínez, alias Pope León XIV, criticized figures such as U.S. Vice President James Vance and the presidents of El Salvador and the United States for their stances on refugees and the deportation of a citizen. As a cardinal ordained by Pope Francis in 2023, he warned about the lack of solidarity and love for the most needy, urging the healing of wounds and the eradication of hatred and violence to live in peace.
In a message prior to Pentecost, the Supreme Pontiff asked the Holy Spirit to unite and heal, questioning those who encourage discrimination and the expulsion of vulnerable individuals. In this regard, he denounced the unjust deportation of a U.S. resident by the authorities, pointing out the immorality it represents.
Pope León XIV, known for his limited activity on social media, has expressed his support for social causes such as justice for George Floyd and assistance for refugees. Through his account on a digital platform, he has spoken out against police violence and called for solidarity with those who suffer discrimination and persecution.
Amid his statements, Prevost reiterated his commitment to Christian values of love and empathy, criticizing discriminatory policies of certain governments and demanding respect for the dignity of every human being. His position, based on principles of justice and compassion, seeks to raise awareness about the importance of protecting the most vulnerable and promoting peace and harmony in society.
