Today, May 8, the conclave gathered in the Sistine Chapel has chosen Robert Francis Prevost, a 70 -year -old man from the United States, as a new Pope.
Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost becomes the first Pope originally from the United States of America.
Francisco happens at the head of the Catholic Church, with the name of Leo XIV.
Before his choice, Cardinal Prevost held the position of prefect of Dicastery for Bishops.
According to our analysis of the Cardinal College, its position was quite central and relatively progressive.
His choice occurs one day and 23 minutes after the opening of the conclave and 17 days after Francisco’s death.
Grand Continent will publish in the next few minutes the first comment about his blessing City and the World and a geopolitical portrait in six points of the new Pope.
