From National Catholic Reporter

In his Easter message, the pontiff declared "let those who have weapons lay them down!" and called for a prayer vigil for peace April 11 to be held in St. Peter's Basilica. Similarly, on Palm Sunday, Leo said during Mass in St. Peter's Square that God "does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war." Leo celebrated reports of a ceasefire in the conflict.

PS: Pope Leo, like his predecessor Pope Francis, is working to make up for the “mistaken policies” of the past, like siding with the powerful and wealthy, considering people as property, and what side to take in war.
