Britain's King Charles III told Italy's parliament Wednesday that peace is "never to be taken for granted" before ending a visit to Rome with a surprise visit to a convalescing Pope Francis.
King Charles and Queen Camilla met with 88-year-old Francis, who has been recuperating from pneumonia at the Vatican after being released last month from hospital, on their 20th wedding anniversary -- a day packed with visits, handshakes, and a historic address to parliament.
