According to recent reports, this collaboration between the EU and the Catholic Church under the leadership of Pope Leo XIV aims to build upon the Holy See's robust presence in humanitarian matters, particularly concerning migration and refugee welfare. This strategy echoes Pope Francis's approach of translating faith into real-world actions, inspiring both grassroots initiatives and international diplomacy initiatives, such as the Church's involvement in UN negotiations and advocating for the rights of displaced individuals globally.
It appears that this EU-Holy See partnership will carry forward these humanitarian and diplomatic efforts, harnessing the Holy See's moral and political might to tackle migration, social solidarity, and other critical issues, all with a shared spirit of empathy and mutual respect.
In essence, Costa and von der Leyen support a working relationship that reflects these key principles as they engage with the new Pope Leo XIV's leadership. For now, specific policy initiatives or frameworks within this cooperation have yet to be revealed.
- Antonio Costa and Ursula von der Leyen have expressed their readiness to collaborate with the newly elected Pope Leo XIV, aligning with the European Union's (EU) aim to work with the Catholic Church for a world centered on caring, civility, and compassion.

- The Pope, in his role as head of the Catholic Church, is expected to leverage the Holy See's influence in advocating for fairness, empathy, and the welfare of displaced individuals worldwide.
- As António Costa and Ursula von der Leyen look forward to engaging with Pope Leo XIV, they await the development of specific policy initiatives aimed at addressing migration, social solidarity, and other crucial issues, all with a spirit of kindness and mutual respect.
