President Donald Trump is refusing to apologize to Pope Leo XIV after criticizing the pontiff's opposition to the war in Iran. Trump told reporters Monday that he wasn't sorry for responding to Leo's public comments. Trump lashed out at the pope on Sunday night in both a social media post and to reporters after disembarking Air Force One. Leo responded by saying that the Vatican’s appeals for peace and reconciliation are rooted in the Gospel and that he doesn’t fear the Trump administration. On Monday, Trump also sought to explain away a now-deleted social media post depicting himself as Jesus by saying he thought it showed him as a doctor.
President Donald Trump says the U.S. military has begun a blockade of Iranian ports and coastal areas, and Iran responded with threats on ports in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. Trump had vowed earlier to block the strategic Strait of Hormuz entirely. He suggested later Monday he was willing to engage with Iran, saying he had spoken to “the other side.” This came after the he warned that Iranian warships coming “anywhere close” to the U.S. blockade would be destroyed. Ceasefire talks between the U.S. and Iran ended Sunday without an agreement, and it's unknown what happens when the current two-week truce expires on April 22.
