Pope Leo heads to Milei's Argentina as tensions loom over austerity, Iran
By Leila Miller and Joshua McElweeMONTEVIDEO, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Pope Leo heads on Sunday to Argentina on the second leg of a 12-day tour across South America, where the first US-born pope will give a closely watched speech to Argentine President Javier Milei, a libertarian seen as a close ally of Donald Trump.The address may underscore tensions between the Vatican and Milei, whose austerity agenda has been criticized by the Church for hitting the poorest most and who has strongly supported the Iran war, which Leo has criticized to Trump's ire.
