Zelensky to meet with Pope and Italian prime minister on Saturday

There is no official confirmation of a possible visit to the Vatican, but a meeting with Georgia Meloni is expected, as well as a meeting with the pastor of the President of Ukraine, according to Italian journalists.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may meet with Pope Francis and Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni in the near future. This was reported by Italian news agency Ansa, citing sources in the Vatican.

So far, there has been no official confirmation from either the Italian or Ukrainian leadership. However, according to the Italian press, the Vatican stated that the meeting in question could take place on Saturday, May 13 at the earliest.

The other day, the Pope of Rome received at the Vatican the Prime Minister of Ukraine, Denys Shmygal, who delivered a photo album describing the Argentine-born “Borodiansky rooster” and the persecution of Russian aggression in Ukraine.

Recall that the Pope was surprised that no one knew about the Vatican’s “peacekeeping mission” in Ukraine. The authors of the initiative, which aimed at a peaceful solution, reportedly were confident in the success of the initiative. However, the details of the project are not yet known.

According to Francis, he discussed the situation in Ukraine with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Metropolitan Hilarion of the Russian Orthodox Church.

The Kremlin also commented on the Vatican’s initiative on the peaceful resolution of the war in Ukraine.

In early April, the pope of Rome celebrated the first mass after leaving the hospital. At a meeting with residents of the Italian capital, he supported a woman whose 5-year-old daughter died.
