On April 26, 2025, world leaders gathered in Rome for the funeral of Pope Francis, with prominent figures such as Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Emmanuel Macron, and Keir Starmer in attendance. The event, which was a solemn occasion to honor the late pontiff, quickly became a point of discussion due to the stark differences in the way two of the world’s most talked-about political leaders—Trump and Zelenskyy—were received by the crowd. While the funeral was a moment of reflection for many, the contrast in their greetings sparked significant online conversation, especially after videos of the event circulated.
