The new Pope assumes a unique authority in the international stage, with little margin to transform the Catholic Church
In a Plaza de San Pedro crowded, Fumata Blanca announced this May 8 the election of the new Pope: Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost. American and Peruvian – was a missionary in Peru – has chosen the name of Leo XIV, a symbolic turn towards tradition. At 69, he will concentrate a unique spiritual and diplomatic power in the world. At a time when the Catholic Church faces challenges such as the loss of faithful and the scandals of sexual abuse of minors, it is worth asking what margin of action has Leo XIV, its new pontiff.
