But Vance didnt meet the Pope

[–] teagrrl@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

The vice president had a formal meeting with Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin on April 19, and returned on April 20 for a brief interaction with the Pope. Photos taken by the Vatican and shared by the White House showed a smiling Vance seated across from Francis, who was in a wheelchair.
