Pope Leo XIV has returned to Peru, the country he considers his second homeland, amid a massive popular celebration. Around three million people, according to Vatican estimates, gathered along the route of his motorcade through Lima to welcome the Pontiff, who, as part of his tour of Latin America, is beginning a six-day visit to the country where he spent more than two decades as a missionary and bishop. "The Pope is Peruvian!" some of those present chanted, according to AP, as Leo XIV travelled through the streets of the capital, which were decked out with Peruvian and Vatican flags.
