教宗良十四世11月9日在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯主持户外弥撒:市政府预计逾150万人参加,为其18个月教宗任内南美之行最大场面之一

路透社 11 月 9 日报道,大批人群当日聚集在阿根廷首都布宜诺斯艾利斯的主要大道之一解放者大道(Avenida del Libertador),等待教宗良十四世抵达主持户外弥撒;布宜诺斯艾利斯市政府官员表示,这场弥撒可能吸引超过 150 万人参加。
数以万计的民众自清晨起沿大道汇集。警方封锁了市中心大片区域设置安保区,平日繁忙的街道几近空无一人;朝圣路线沿途有小贩出售印有教宗面容的旗帜等纪念品。37 岁的克劳迪娅·帕尔多(Claudia Pardo)与丈夫和两个年幼的孩子在人群中等待,她对路透社说:「我很高兴(良十四世)来访问我们。这是一个独特的、历史性的时刻,我们应当聆听他的讯息。」
良十四世现年 71 岁,正在进行为期 12 天、涵盖三个国家、共 50 场活动的南美之行,行程开始不到一个月前他刚接受过肺癌手术。他先访问乌拉圭,周日抵达阿根廷,周三将前往秘鲁,11 月 17 日离开该地区。这位首位出生于美国的教宗曾在秘鲁担任传教士数十年,梵蒂冈把此次访问形容为一次「回家」。教宗上一次访问以天主教徒为主的阿根廷还是在 1987 年。
周日,良十四世对阿根廷总统哈维尔·米莱发表讲话。米莱是自由意志主义者、被视为美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的亲密盟友,其紧缩议程削减社会服务、受到教会强烈批评;教宗敦促米莱不要把阿根廷最贫困者作为目标,并表示领导人应当谨言、知晓权力的限度。弥撒之前,良十四世还前往布宜诺斯艾利斯南郊一所残障人士照护中心探访,该中心宗教负责人豪尔赫·西拉内斯(Jorge Silanes)表示,由于米莱的支出削减已减少残障福利、而阿根廷贫困仍普遍存在,这次探访具有额外意义。
路透社指出,良十四世教宗任内迄今最大的一场活动是今年 6 月在西班牙马德里举行的活动,约有 120 万人参加。

Pope Leo Holds Outdoor Mass in Buenos Aires on November 9; City Officials Expect More Than 1.5 Million People
Throngs of people were gathering on Monday, November 9, on one of the main boulevards in Buenos Aires as Pope Leo was due to arrive for an outdoor Mass that city officials said could attract more than 1.5 million people, Reuters reported.
Tens of thousands began streaming down the Avenida del Libertador in the early hours of the morning for the event, likely to be one of the largest gatherings of Leo's 12-day tour across South America and of his 18-month papacy. Normally bustling streets in the Argentine capital stood nearly empty as police cordoned off large sections of the city to create a security zone, and vendors along the pilgrims' route were selling souvenirs of the visit, including flags featuring the pope's face.
"I love that (Leo) is visiting us," said Claudia Pardo, 37, who was waiting amid the crowds with her husband and two young children. "It's a unique, historic moment, and we should listen to his message."
Leo, 71, is on an ambitious 50-event, three-country tour less than a month after undergoing lung cancer surgery. He visited Uruguay before arriving in Argentina on Sunday and will travel on to Peru on Wednesday before leaving the region on November 17. The first U.S.-born pope spent decades as a missionary in Peru, and the Vatican has described the tour as a "homecoming." A pope has not visited majority-Catholic Argentina since 1987.
On Sunday, the pope addressed Argentine President Javier Milei, a libertarian seen as a close ally of U.S. President Donald Trump. He urged Milei, who has pushed an austerity agenda that the Church has strongly criticized for cutting social services, not to target Argentina's poorest, and told him that leaders should be careful with their words and know the limits of their power.
Ahead of Monday's Mass, Leo was due to visit a care center for people with disabilities on the southern outskirts of Buenos Aires. Jorge Silanes, religious director of the Pequeño Cottolengo Don Orione center welcoming Leo, said the visit carried added significance because Milei's spending cuts have reduced disability benefits while poverty in Argentina remains widespread. The largest event yet in Leo's papacy came in June, when some 1.2 million people turned out in Madrid during the pontiff's visit to Spain.
