Pope Leo used the second day of his visit to Lebanon to call for “coexistence,” bringing together religious leaders from both sides of the former civil war and calling for unity in a region long scarred by conflict. Speaking in Beirut’s Martyrs Square, once the “green line” that separated the Muslim West from the Christian East during the 1975-90 civil war, he said Lebanon stood as proof that “fear, mistrust and prejudice do not have the last word”. France24 correspondent Rawad Taha reports from Beirut.
