Pope Leo has arrived in Peru for the final leg of his three-nation tour of South America, calling the country his 'homeland'. The pontiff was welcomed by large crowds in the capital, Lima, where he was also greeted by President Keiko Fujimori. Peru holds special significance for Pope Leo, who spent two decades in the country serving as a missionary priest and later as a bishop in Chiclayo.
