Archbishop of Canterbury backs pope’s calls for peace amid Trump feud

Sarah Mullally urges Anglicans to join Leo’s ‘courageous’ call and says human cost of war is incalculable

The archbishop of Canterbury has said she is standing in solidarity with Pope Leo XIV’s calls for peace amid his public feud with Donald Trump.

Days after the US president objected to comments from the head of the Catholic church suggesting a “delusion of omnipotence” was fuelling the US-Israeli war in Iran, Sarah Mullally urged Anglicans to join Leo’s “courageous” call.
