Vatican: White smoke: New Pope Elected

Andrea Ronchini

Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost has been chosen as pope and has chosen the papal name Leo XIV, for the world's 1.4 billion Catholics, as Catholic faithful and several priests from around the world gather in St. Peter's Square, outside the Vatican, for the Sistine Chapel conclave, where today's vote for the new pontiff was announced by white smoke rising from the chimney atop the Chapel's ramparts.
