VATICAN-POPE-COPTIC ORTHODOX-TAWADROS II-AUDIENCE

Pope Francis (R) puts on a neckless, gift from the Coptic Orthodox leader Tawadros II (L) during a private audience in the pontiff’s library on May 10, 2013 at the Vatican. Tawadros II arrived in Rome the day before for a historic four-day visit to meet Pope Francis — a sign of growing rapprochement between the Vatican and the Orthodox world.
