Can Pope Leo Xiv Lose US Citizenship After Becoming Vatican’s American-Born Head Of State?US-Vatican

Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Prevost in Chicago, has become the first U.S.-born pontiff and now leads both the Holy See and Vatican City. His dual role as an American citizen and a foreign head of state raises legal and constitutional questions. While U.S. law allows for “active review” of such cases, experts say Leo’s citizenship is unlikely to be revoked unless he explicitly renounces it. The Vatican is a sovereign nation, and Leo holds dual citizenship with Peru as well. The U.S. State Department declined comment on his status. #PopeLeoXIV #VaticanCity #USCitizenship #RobertPrevost #AmericanPope #HolySee #CatholicChurch #PapalElection #DualCitizenship #VaticanNews #USLaw #CitizenshipReview #PopeAndPolitics #ChurchAndState #PeterSpiro #PapalHistory #PeruCitizenship #ConstitutionalLaw #USStateDepartment #InternationalLaw ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.122~

Lavrov REJECTS Pope's Offer To Host Russia-Ukraine Talks, Calls Vatican 'Unsuitable…' For Mediation

Amid escalating global interest in resolving the Russia–Ukraine war, Pope Leo XIV offered the Vatican as a neutral ground for the next round of peace negotiations. Italian PM Giorgia Meloni confirmed the Pope’s willingness. However, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov dismissed the offer, claiming the Vatican is unsuitable as a platform, citing religious concerns and Ukraine’s persecution of the Orthodox Church. Lavrov also mentioned that Moscow’s draft peace memorandum is nearly ready, but there is no clarity yet on when the next round of talks might occur. #RussiaUkraineWar #Lavrov #VaticanPeaceTalks #PopeLeoXIV #UkraineCrisis #PeaceNegotiations #GiorgiaMeloni #OrthodoxChurch #CatholicChurch #RussiaUkraineConflict #LavrovStatement #PeaceDeal #VaticanOfferRejected #WarMediation #UkraineNews #RussiaNews #UkraineOrthodoxChurch #PopeLeoPeace #InternationalDiplomacy #HolySee Also Read Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov Warns Against Nuclear Conflict in UN Speech Targeting the West :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-nuclear-capacity-un-speech-west-011-3947317.html?ref=DMDesc Russia's Lavrov Engages Guinea in Diplomatic Outreach Amid Cooling Western Ties :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-foreign-minister-lavrov-africa-visit-guinea-011-3841367.html?ref=DMDesc Russia, North Korea Deepen Ties Amid Arms Deal Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-north-korea-talks-amid-arms-deal-concerns-gen-3728289.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~GR.125~

No PEACE TALKS on June 2? Russia dismisses Ukraine’s ‘UNCONSTRUCTIVE’ Demand

Russia’s proposed second round of Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul on June 2 appears doomed before it begins. Ukraine has raised complaints, demanding Moscow deliver its ceasefire draft immediately, while Russia decries Kyiv’s conditions as "unconstructive." Ukraine insists on a full ceasefire as a starting point, accusing Russia of stalling. The first talks failed after Putin skipped the meeting, and now with no changes in Russia’s delegation, hopes for diplomatic progress remain bleak amid rising tension and mistrust. #RussiaUkraineWar #PeaceTalks #IstanbulSummit #CeasefireStalemate #Lavrov #Zelensky #Putin #Medinsky #UkraineDemands #RussiaRefuses #DiplomaticDeadlock #KyivVsMoscow #WarInUkraine #Geopolitics #UkrainePeacePlan #RussiaPeaceDraft #June2Talks #NoBreakthrough #UkraineConflict #CeasefireNow #GlobalDiplomacy #PutinSnub #WesternSanctions #PeaceEffortsFail #UkraineRussiaTensions #UnconditionalCeasefire #NegotiationCrisis #UkraineRussiaNews #TurkeyMediation #RussiaUkraineDialogue #FailedDiplomacy Also Read Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif Says Ready To Talk With India On All Disputes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-pm-shehbaz-sharif-says-ready-to-talk-with-india-on-all-disputes-4164725.html?ref=DMDesc West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.336~

‘Shooting Russia in the back’ | Russian Intel Drops BOMBSHELL on Serbian involvement in War [Video]

‘Shooting Russia in the back’ | Russian Intel Drops BOMBSHELL on Serbian involvement in War

Russia accuses Serbia of secretly supplying arms to Ukraine via NATO states, undermining its declared neutrality in the war. Russian intelligence alleges Serbian ammunition is reaching Kyiv through intermediaries in Czechia, Poland, Bulgaria, and Africa. Reports claim over $855 million in Serbian arms have flowed to Ukraine since 2024. While Serbia denies direct involvement, officials admit weapons may appear via third parties. As Belgrade balances EU aspirations and ties with Moscow, the controversy risks straining its geopolitical tightrope. #Serbia #RussiaUkraineWar #Ukraine #ArmsTrade #RussianIntel #SerbianWeapons #Belgrade #Geopolitics #NeutralityCrisis #Kyiv #NATO #EasternEurope #MilitarySupplies #Vucic #MilosVucevic #DefensePolicy #SerbianAmmo #WarAllegations #EUAmbitions #MoscowTies #BalkanPolitics #RussiaVsUkraine #FinancialTimes #PentagonLeaks #UkraineSupport #BlackMarketArms #ThirdPartySales #WeaponsLeak #PoliticalTension #GlobalConflict #SouthEastEurope Also Read West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.336~GR.124~

Russia Set to BOMB Berlin Over Germany's 'TAURUS' Support to Ukraine | Could Merz Start WWIII?

Speculation is rising after Ukrainian President Zelensky met German Chancellor Merz to discuss acquiring German-made Taurus missiles—highly lethal, long-range weapons capable of striking deep into Russia. Ukraine faces challenges operating this advanced technology without German support, which could delay deployment by years. If used soon, Moscow may accuse Germany of direct involvement, risking Russian retaliation including deployment of Oreshnik strike complexes. Russian media warns Germany against provoking escalation that could spark a wider conflict. #Zelensky #ChancellorMerz #TaurusMissiles #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #GermanSupport #MilitaryAid #WarEscalation #LongRangeWeapons #OreshnikStrike #RussianRetaliation #UkraineDefense #Geopolitics #GermanyUkraine #RussiaConflict #MissileTechnology #WarStrategy #ConflictWatch #DefenseNews #GlobalSecurity #MilitaryTensions #WarUpdates #ThirdWorldWarRisk #RussiaWarnings #GermanyInvolvement #TaurusProgram #UkrainianMilitary #EuropeanSecurity #DefenseTalks #WarAnalysis #InternationalRelations ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.194~

Trump Welcomes to 'White' Refugees After Harsh U.S Immigration Crackdown – Media Cries 'Hypocrisy'

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy. #Trump #WhiteRefugees #SouthAfrica #ImmigrationHypocrisy #USAsylum #WhiteGenocide #MediaBias #Trump2025 #LandSeizure #BlackImmigration #USPolitics #ImmigrationPolicy #AsylumSeekers Also Read Cyril Ramaphosa Extends Condolences on the Passing of Pope Francis at Age 88 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-african-president-ramaphosa-condolences-pope-francis-passing-011-4130473.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Looks to Strengthen Trade Relations with India and China Amidst US Tariff Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-increases-trade-india-china-us-tariffs-011-4117633.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Issues Warning on Human Trafficking After 23 Citizens Rescued from Myanmar :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-cautions-citizens-human-trafficking-myanmar-011-4109177.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.336~
