Death of Pope Francis: A pope embraced by the French left
Pope Francis, who passed away on April 21, was embraced by left-wing figures in France, contrasting with criticism from the right and far-right for his progressive stance. His papacy was marked by a focus on poverty and simplicity, aligning with the legacy of Saint Francis of Assisi.

His rejection of traditionalism and opulence resonated with many, as he aimed to lead a "poor Church" serving the marginalized. Tributes from leaders like Jean-Luc Mélenchon and François Hollande highlighted his impact, while conservatives labeled him a "woke pope."

Pope Francis passed away on Easter Monday at 88, following health struggles. He led the Roman Catholic Church since 2013 and met with three U.S. presidents during his papacy. His last meeting was with Vice President JD Vance just hours before his death.

The Vatican's relationship with U.S. presidents dates back to Woodrow Wilson in 1919. Since then, every president has met with the pope, with significant meetings aimed at addressing global issues, including communism during the Reagan era.
