BUENOS AIRES - Pope Leo is "very likely" to visit Argentina in November, President Javier Milei said on local radio station Radio Mitre on Tuesday.

Pope Leo is also scheduled to visit Uruguay in November as part of a broader tour of southern Latin America. The trip, announced in February, is expected to include Peru and Argentina.
