President of Ireland Michael D. Higgins on the Announcement of Pope Leo XIV


“May I, as President of Ireland, extend my warmest congratulations to Cardinal Robert Prevost on his election as successor to Pope Francis.

This is an immensely significant moment for all those of faith and goodwill around the world who look to the Papacy for spiritual guidance, moral clarity, and global leadership at a time described by his predecessor Pope Francis as needing the vocation of diplomacy. 

Pope Leo XIV assumes this important role at a time of great challenges for the world. 

I send Pope Leo my very best wishes as he begins his Pontificate, and I welcome his statement that he is prepared to lead with compassion, wisdom, and an enduring commitment to the values of peace, justice, and human dignity. 

Ireland enjoys a long-standing and deeply rooted connection with the Holy See. It is founded on shared values of interdependence, and the responsibility that goes with it, as well as historical ties. We in Ireland very much look forward to maintaining and deepening that relationship with Pope Leo, as we continue to share the project of fostering dialogue and understanding between peoples and nations.

It is my sincere hope that under Pope Leo’s leadership, the Holy See will continue to play a central role in promoting global solidarity, addressing the pressing issues of poverty, inequality, conflict, and climate change — challenges that transcend borders and demand collective action from the international community. 

On behalf of the people of Ireland, I wish Pope Leo every success and strength for his Pontificate.”
