  "account": "Pope Leo XIV has urged greater consideration for poor and vulnerable groups in society during a visit to Argentina. Upon arriving in Buenos Aires, he emphasized that economic growth must benefit those who struggle the most and that the economy should serve humanity, not the other way around. The Pope's comments come as Argentina's President Javier Milei, who took office in 2023, implements policies aimed at reducing the state's role and cutting spending, which have led to criticism of their social impact. A third of Argentina's 46 million people are considered poor, and many young people are leaving the country in search of better opportunities.",
  "summary": "Francis never returned to his home country of Argentina after being elected Pope. Now President Milei is rolling out the red carpet for his successor. But Leo XIV also has critical words.",
