Pope Leo XIV urges French Church to keep fighting abuse
Original: Pope Leo XIV urges French Church to continue fight against sexual abuse
Pope Leo XIV has called on the Catholic Church in France to continue its fight against sexual abuse, according to Euronews. The appeal comes as the French Church continues to reckon with the scale of abuse documented in recent years, and it signals that the Vatican expects the matter to remain a priority under the new pontiff.
Why now: The new pope's stance on clerical sexual abuse is being closely watched, and his message to the French Church touches an ongoing institutional reckoning.
