The Polish Episcopal Conference assures the Pope of prayers

“The Church community in Poland, together with its shepherds, assures prayer for peace in the world, as well as spiritual support for the Holy Father through the gift of prayer and unity with the Shepherd of the universal Church,” the statement emphasized. Document signed by Archbishop Wojda was provided by the Episcopate's press office.

The statement of the Polish bishops appeared in the context of the US president's sharp criticism of the pope. Donald Trump criticized Leo XIV on Sunday on his Truth Social social media platform and later repeated the criticism in a conversation with reporters at Andrews military base near Washington. The American president called the pope “weak on crime and other things” and terrible at foreign policy.
Trump also released a controversial AI-generated graphic showing himself dressed in Jesus' robes. The image was removed from the president's account on Monday. Leo XIV announced on Monday that he would continue calling for peace and speaking out against the war. The Holy Father told journalists that he is not afraid of the US administration and does not intend to enter into discussion with Trump.
