Pope Francis's first US visit set for September
Pope Francis will land at Andrews Air Force Base on September 22 marking his first ever trip to the United States. The Argentinian pope, a Jesuit known for staying close to his flock, has long avoided international travel, contrasting with predecessors who built ties with American Catholic leaders. Experts note his critique of global capitalism and U.S. policy history in Latin America shapes this unique visit.
