President Donald Trump defended his comments defending Pope Leo XIV's statements against the Iran war, stating that he has a right to disagree with him and there is no need to meet to resolve their differences. He also mentioned that he liked Leo's brother, Louis Prevost, a Trump supporter. However, he stated that he disagreed with the pope's statements regarding Iran's nuclear capabilities. He argued that the pope should understand that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and that if they did, every country in the world would be in trouble. The pope responded by saying he has "no fear" of the Trump administration.
