Millions fill Buenos Aires streets to welcome Pope Leo XIV

Pope Leo XIV recently visited Argentina, marking the second stop on a 12-day tour of Latin America. During his visit to Buenos Aires, the Pope celebrated an outdoor Mass, which drew millions of people to the streets. This visit occurred just three weeks after the Pontiff underwent surgery for lung cancer.
While BBC News focused on the large public turnout and the Pope's health, The Guardian highlighted a different aspect of the visit. According to The Guardian, Pope Leo delivered a strong criticism of Argentina's president, Javier Milei, and his austerity measures. The Pontiff reportedly emphasized that economic growth should benefit everyone, a message that was met with enthusiastic applause in Buenos Aires.
