Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, accompanied by Deputy PM Antonio Tajani, visited St. Peter’s Basilica to pay her final respects to Pope Francis, who passed away earlier this week. Meloni, who had earlier honored the late pontiff with an emotional tribute in the Italian Parliament, called him the “People’s Pope” and praised his unwavering dedication to world peace. Pope Francis’ body has been placed in St. Peter’s Basilica for three days of public mourning, allowing thousands of Catholics to say goodbye. The basilica will remain open until midnight on Wednesday and Thursday, with the public viewing concluding Friday evening. The funeral will be held on Saturday, led by senior cardinals of the Vatican.#meloni #popefrancis #vatican #stpeterbasilica
