Pope Francis faces challenges during Hungary visit.

Pope Francis is set to visit Hungary for a three-day pastoral visit, his first full trip to the country since he became Pope 10 years ago. The visit is being portrayed by pro-government media as a diplomatic triumph for the Orban government, even a chance to end its international isolation over the war in Ukraine. The Pope will meet Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and President Katalin Novak, as well as poor and homeless people, and refugees from Ukraine, Afghanistan, Sudan, Iran, Iraq and Pakistan. The main conflict in the past between Pope Francis and the Hungarian government was the pontiff's compassion for refugees and asylum seekers, contrasted with Hungarian government hostility.
