Pope Francis headed to Cuba Saturday on the first leg of his
most high-profile trip to date, which will also take him to
the United States — highlighting his role in mediating the
former Cold War foes’ historic thaw.
Landmark speeches to the US Congress and the
UN General Assembly await next week on the
78-year-old Argentine’s first trip to a global
superpower whose policies he has never
hesitated to criticise.
But first the leader of the world’s 1.3 billion
Roman Catholics will become the third pope to
touch down in communist Cuba in less than two
decades.
