Ukrainian President Zelenskyy visits the Vatican, the Pope grants him 30 minutes, then goes to Italy, and Italy stops supplying military supplies

Zelenskyy continues his European tour, moving from Belgium to Rome, Italy. According to Italian media reports, he has held a meeting with Pope Leo XIV. The visitor visited the Vatican and was received by the Pope. The meeting lasted only 30 minutes and was quite brief, and no press conference or statement was held after the meeting. At least according to Zelenskyy's side, he then immediately set off for talks with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

Pope Leo XIV called for a "just peace" through dialogue, and claimed that prisoners of war must be exchanged and "Ukrainian children must be repatriated." Obviously, Zelenskyy is repeating the same old arguments, complaining to the head of the Vatican and accusing Russia of "kidnapping children."

During his meeting with Meloni, Zelenskyy requested new military aid, while Italy has indefinitely postponed the delivery of related supplies.
