President of the United States Donald Trump arrived in the morning of May 24 in the Vatican, where he first met with Pope Francis.
The corresponding video is posted on the official channel of the Vatican in Youtube.
At the audience with the pontiff, the head of the White House was accompanied by his wife Melania and daughter Ivanka.
The personal conversation of the heads of state lasted for 20 minutes. Press office of the Holy See does not report on the content of the conversation.
In the Vatican, Trump is scheduled to hold talks with Secretary of State Pietro Parolin and Secretary for Relations with States Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher. Also, the US president will visit the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Cathedral.
Recall, in his message to Trump about his inauguration, the Pope Francis reminded the US leader that humanity is going through a "severe humanitarian crisis that requires far-sighted and united political responses".
As reported by the "Observer", earlier the head of the Catholic Church said that he intended to personally talk with Trump before making judgments about him.
