In a rare moment for the small central African nation, Pope Leo XIV made a final stop in Equatorial Guinea at the end of his 10-day tour across the continent, where he urged global leaders to address the needs of the continent.

“One of the main drivers of the spread of armed conflicts is the colonization of oil and mineral deposits, without regard for international law or the right of peoples to self-determination," the Pope said, “without a change of course in political responsibility and without respect for institutions and international agreements, the fate of humanity risks being tragically compromised," he added.

One ecstatic student had this to say about the visit: “Honestly, considering that the Pope is a very important figure worldwide, I think his visit to Equatorial Guinea, which is a very small country — I don’t really know how to express it — but I’m very happy about it. I’m very happy.”

Pope Leo’s appearance in Equatorial Guinea marks the second time a pontiff has visited, with Pope John Paul II visiting in 1982.
