Pope Leo landed in Cordoba on Tuesday (November 10) as he continued his visit to Argentina.

Leo, 71, is on an ambitious 50-event, three-country tour less than a month after undergoing lung cancer surgery. He visited Uruguay before arriving in Argentina on Sunday and will travel on to Peru on Wednesday before returning to Rome on November 17.

The first US-born pope spent decades as a missionary in Peru and the Vatican has described the tour, one of the most demanding foreign tours by a pope in decades, as a "homecoming."

A pope has not visited majority-Catholic Argentina since 1987. Francis, Leo's predecessor, never made it back to his home country after ascending to the papacy.

Leo has emerged as a forceful voice on the world stage, lamenting what he sees as a failure of global leadership. On his tour he has urged South American nations to set an example of regional cooperation and patient diplomacy instead of conflict.
