Pope Leo XIV on Tuesday closed out the Vatican's 2025 Holy Year by denouncing today's consumerist and anti-foreigner sentiment, capping a Jubilee that saw some 33 million pilgrims flock to Rome and a historic transition from one American pontiff to another.
With cardinals and diplomats looking on, Pope Leo XIV kneeled down in prayer on the stone floor at the threshold of the Holy Door of St Peter's Basilica.
