Around a quarter of a million people are expected in St. Peter’s Square for the inauguration of Pope Leo XIV, marking the beginning of his papacy with the traditional pallium and fisherman’s ring. Unlike his predecessor, Pope Francis, who was known for his approachable style, Leo is described as shy and reserved, yet warm and attentive. His inaugural address is anticipated to outline his vision for the Church, addressing significant global issues, including peace amid ongoing conflicts.
