The Vatican press office announced this morning that “Pope Francis spent a quiet night and had breakfast sitting in the armchair in his room” at Rome’s Agostino Cemelli Catholic polyclinic.

As leaked at the same time, Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni’s visit yesterday to the pontiff lasted about twenty minutes. According to Corriere della Sera, Francis, during their conversation, reportedly told Meloni: “some prayed that I would die, but our Owner left me here.”

A new statement on the Argentine pope’s health is expected to be issued this afternoon.
