Pope Francis say he is considering a trip to Ukraine.
While on a flight to Malta on April 2, a journalist traveling with him asked Francis whether he was considering an invitation to visit the Ukrainian capital Kyiv.
"Yes, it is on the table," the 85-year-old pontiff replied. He did not elaborate.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has invited the pope to come to the war-torn country.
Pope Francis has called for an end to the war in Ukraine and said there was no justification for the “senseless massacre” that is occurring in the besieged country.
