Leo XIV called Vladimir Putin from his hospital bed, just three days after undergoing lung cancer surgery, to request a humanitarian ceasefire in Oleshky, Ukraine. “It was the Holy Father himself who took the initiative,” confirmed Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin. “I hope that, faced with a request from the Holy Father, President Putin will agree to put into practice what has been asked of him,” Parolin added.
Diplomazia dall’ospedale – La telefonata tra Putin e Leone XIV è stata un’iniziativa del Papa per mediare nella guerra contro l’Ucraina «È stato il Santo Padre a prendere l’iniziativa» della telefonata al presidente russo Putin, «per perorare la causa di questa città assediata, nella quale si trovano circa 2.000 civili che hanno bisogno di vie di fuga, di corridoi umanitari. Credo che il Papa abbia chiesto una tregua per consentire sia l’arrivo di aiuti umanitari, in particolare di generi alimentari, sia l’evacuazione di coloro che devono lasciare la città». È quanto ha affermato il Segretario di Stato vaticano, il cardinale Pietro Parolin, dopo la telefonata tra Leone XIV e Putin. «Spero — ha aggiunto — che, di fronte a una richiesta del Santo Padre, il presidente Putin, per così dire, accetti di mettere in pratica ciò che gli è stato chiesto».
"And therefore it is to be firmly believed that God governs and disposes not only natural things, but also human acts. Psalm 93:7-11: “And they said: The Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob understand. Understand, you senseless ones among the people; and you fools, be wise at last. He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? Or He who formed the eye, shall He not consider? (…) The Lord knows the thoughts of men.” Therefore God sees all things—both thoughts and the hidden things of the will. Hence the necessity of doing good is especially imposed upon men, because all that they think and do is manifest to the divine gaze, as the Apostle says in Hebrews 4:13: “All things are naked and open to His eyes.” — St. Thomas Aquinas

Three Catholic dioceses in northern England have proposed merging into one amid declining numbers. Bishop Marcus Stock has submitted a report to Pope Leo XIV recommending the unification of Leeds, Middlesbrough and Hallam, which together serve approximately 496,000 Catholics in 193 parishes.
