Leo XIV’s African Tour: A Parade of Diplomacy Without the Gospel
EWTN News Staff reports on the activities of Leo XIV during his visit to Equatorial Guinea on April 21, 2026, the final stop of a broader African tour that included Algeria, Cameroon, and Angola. The “pope” met with President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, civil leaders, the diplomatic corps, cultural figures, and visited a psychiatric hospital in Malabo. He also prayed at St. Elizabeth Cathedral and spoke at the León XIV Campus of the National University. The article presents these activities as routine pastoral diplomacy, devoid of any substantive doctrinal content, evangelistic urgency, or prophetic confrontation with error. This is precisely the problem: the conciliar sect reduces the Church’s mission to humanitarian tourism and interfaith-style dialogue, while the salvation of souls and the public reign of Christ the King are entirely absent.
