- In speeches at the Élysée Palace and UNESCO, Leo addressed scientific progress, life, human rights, and artificial intelligence.
- The Vatican continues opposing nuclear weapons; Leo called nuclear deterrence mistaken because it was fueling a new arms race.
- More than one million people are expected during the four-day trip, the first official papal state visit to France in 18 years.
- In France, where abortion has been constitutionally protected since 2024, Leo stressed the right to life as the foundation of all other human rights.
If we are to avoid losing our humanity amid a 'paradise of machines' invading and conditioning our daily lives, there is an urgent need for education in ethical discernment and the capacity to acknowledge the moral good," he said.— Pope Leo XIV, delivering opening remarks at the Élysée Palace in Paris during his France visit
