⌨The newspapers extensively cover the election of American Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as Pope León XIV, the first US-born pontiff (La Razón, RTVE, El Periódico, 20minutos, Libertad Digital). Media highlights his Spanish-speaking abilities, his mother's Spanish heritage, and his progressive views on women's inclusion in the Church and social justice (La Razón, Libertad Digital, 20minutos). His election reportedly halts an ultra-conservative counteroffensive within the Church (eldiario.es).
