Pope Leo XIV: ‘All Lives Are Not Equally Respected’ Amid War and Inequality in Health Care
Pope Leo XIV greets members of the Pontifical Academy for Life at the Vatican on Feb. 16, 2026. The Pope told the Pontifical Academy for Life it is hypocritical to call health a universal value while ignoring policies that drive disparities.
In receiving the members of the Pontifical Academy for Life on Monday, February 16, the pope criticized the "huge resources" devoted to the development of military equipment rather than to care. Leon XIV also considered certain speeches to be "hypocrites" proclaiming equality of access to health, condemning the continuation of conflicts and attacks on hospitals.
Despite declarations, not all human lives are equally respected today, and health is not protected or promoted equally for all, said Leo XIV at an audience for the Pontifical Academy for Life. He reminded the academics that their activities should express the style of God, who cares for all his children. This was the first meeting. The article, "Leo XIV: Healthcare Cannot Be a Privilege," comes from the website Misyjne.pl.
