In a significant call for peace in the embattled Middle East, Archbishop of Canterbury, Sarah Mullally, has expressed her support for Pope Leo XIV's efforts.

Taking over as head of the Church of England in January, Mullally aligned with the pope's 'courageous call for peace'.

Her remarks contrasted the recent criticism from US President Donald Trump, who labeled the pope's actions as 'terrible for foreign policy'. Urging Christians and goodwill from all faiths to advocate for peace, Mullally underscored the essential role of religious communities in fostering global harmony.
