ROME – Pope Francis celebrated the 10th anniversary of his election to the helm of the Catholic Church on Monday with the release of his first podcast, or 'Popecast', on Vatican media.
When asked what would be the best anniversary gift, Francis replied: "peace, peace is needed.”
"I didn't think I would be the pope of the time of the Third World War," the Argentine pontiff said.
"It causes me suffering to see these young men not come back - whether they are Ukrainian or Russian makes no difference to me,” he said. “It's hard". (ANSA)
