Update: 2025-11-27
Description
The heads of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches are set to meet in Turkiye. It's Pope Leo's first international trip since his election in May. The leaders hope to use the occasion to draw their churches closer together. But as Al Jazeera’s John Psaropoulos reports from the Greek capital of Athens, an Orthodox stronghold, the meeting also highlights a centuries-long divide between the two branches of Christianity.
