A recent poll was conducted from April 17-20, 2026, covering various topics including the pope, the president, and conflicts in Iran, Ukraine, and Israel. The pope, reportedly Pope Leo, has expressed opposition to a war with Iran, describing it as not a "just war", and has spoken with the presidents of Israel and Ukraine, calling for an end to war. There appears to be some disagreement or tension between the pope and certain political leaders, including a US president, regarding the conflict with Iran.
