Pope: 'I will not debate war with Trump'

While the Pope emphasizes his commitment to peace and multilateral dialogue, the US government has responded with personal attacks and a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Simultaneously, Hungary faces a significant political shift as incoming Prime Minister Peter Magyar secures a landslide victory, promising to dismantle the corruption and nationalist policies established during Viktor Orban’s 16-year tenure. In the South China Sea, the Philippines has accused Chinese fishermen of using cyanide to poison contested waters, further complicating regional maritime disputes. Meanwhile, the Artemis moon mission successfully concluded with the return of its crew and a zero-gravity indicator designed by an eight-year-old student, highlighting a rare moment of international scientific cooperation.
