Situation in Israel and Gaza raises fears of migration wave also in Iraq

The settling of old scores would jeopardize social cohesion throughout the region. The situation in Syria is not resolved, nor is it in Iraq. Prior to 2002, Iraq was home to more than 1.2 million Christians, but persecution, violence and poverty led to a mass emigration of Christians and Archbishop Warda said about 150,000 now remained.

One in three Mexican bishops will be replaced by Pope Leo XIV between 2026 and 2027

The generational shift is also visible in the provenance of current appointments. As of the beginning of 2026, 52.5 percent of Mexico’s bishops and archbishops were appointed by Pope Francis, 27.6 percent by Benedict XVI, 17.2 percent by John Paul II, and just 2.6 percent by Leo XIV himself. That last figure is set to rise sharply

For the first time, a Pope will address the Spanish Parliament: it will be Leo XIV during his visit to Madrid in June 2026

According to converging confirmations from parliamentary and ecclesial sources, the Vatican and the Spanish Congress have agreed to convene a joint session of both chambers of the Cortes Generales so that the Pope may address deputies and senators gathered in the hemicycle
