Pope Leo XIV Condemns Violations of International Law in Gaza, Ukraine Amid ICC Arrest Warrants

News summary

Pope Leo XIV has strongly condemned the erosion of international and humanitarian law amidst ongoing global conflicts, including those in Gaza, Ukraine, and other regions. He criticized the prevailing attitude that 'might makes right,' lamenting that power has replaced justice and that war is increasingly seen as a solution rather than a failure of diplomacy. The Pope highlighted serious accusations against Israel, including ICC-issued arrest warrants for its leaders over alleged war crimes in Gaza, as well as similar warrants against Russian officials for actions in Ukraine. He called on Christians and faith communities to respond with prayer, social responsibility, and by embodying the love and sacrifice of Christ to confront hatred and violence. Despite criticism from some social media users urging him to avoid politics, Pope Leo XIV maintains his vocal stance on international law and the need for peace. His remarks underscore a broader call for renewed commitment to peace, justice, and humanitarian principles in a world overshadowed by conflict and disregard for legal norms.
