CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis met on August 25 with President Katalin Novak of Hungary.

The Vatican reported that the discussion had centered on the Pope’s trip to Hungary last year, the war in Ukraine, and “topics of common interest, such as the family and Christian values.”

The Vatican statement added that the Pope also spoke with the Hungarian leader about religious freedom and the persecution of Christians around the world. The statement did not mention the topic of immigration, on which the Vatican has been critical of Hungarian policy.
