The Pope arrives in an Argentina where bishops are among Milei’s firmest critics

Pope Leo XIV will arrive in Buenos Aires on Sunday on a visit that Javier Milei’s government presents as strictly pastoral, but which takes place amid tension with Argentina’s Catholic hierarchy, one of the most critical voices against the president’s austerity policies. The pontiff will begin a tour in Uruguay on Friday that will continue in Argentina from November 8 to 11 and end in Peru.
