The new pope

has been elected, it is the American Robert Francis Prevost. As Pope Leo XIV, he now assumes the highest earthly office of the Catholic Church, making him the head of a church of 1.4 billion people. He also holds Peruvian citizenship and has been a bishop there since 2015. He spoke a lot about peace in his first speech and one can hope that he will actively work for peace in the world.

In keeping with the theme of peace in the world, we can learn from the media that Russia has attacked the Zaporizhia region with drones and artillery fire despite announcing a ceasefire.

And then something from Father Christmas, no, not Father Christmas, it's Trump who is likely to ruin Christmas for US Americans, because his tariff policy could double the price of Christmas presents in the USA. Dear Americans, don't complain, you voted for him and have brought yourselves to the brink of dictatorship. But you can be sure of one thing: Trump and his fellow campaigners will not be left with empty pockets.

We wish you a pleasant weekend in the sunshine on the Lower Rhine, enjoy it Monday calls work again.

Yours www.bululu.de Team
