美国副主席JD Vance昨天（5月18日）会见了教皇狮子座

在会议期间，万斯以相当晦涩的欣赏代币授予新成立的教皇。

The vice-president of the United States, JD Vance, met with Pope Leo XIV yesterday (18 May), during which he bestowed the newly-implemented pontiff with a rather obscure token of appreciation.

美国副主席JD Vance昨天（5月18日）会见了狮子座XIV，在此期间，他以相当晦涩的欣赏代币授予了新成立的Pontiff。

Joined in the Vatican by wife Usha, as well as Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several other political leaders, 40-year-old Vance was seen in official photographs shaking the hands of the former cardinal Robert Prevost.

妻子Usha以及乌克兰总统沃罗迪米尔·泽伦斯基（Volodymyr Zelenskyy）和其他几位政治领导人加入了梵蒂冈，在正式照片中看到了40岁的万斯，摇晃着前枢机主教罗伯特·普雷福斯特（Robert Robert Prevost）。

The group also witnessed the 69-year-old religious icon deliver his inaugural mass in St Peter's Square - an event overlooked by thousands of other attendees who lined the streets of both the Vatican and Rome over the weekend.

该组织还目睹了这位69岁的宗教偶像在圣彼得广场（St Peter's Square）举行了他的就职弥撒，这一活动被数千名与会者所忽视的活动，他们在周末在梵蒂冈和罗马的街道上排队。

Prevost was elected the new Head of the Catholic Church earlier this month following the death of Pope Francis on Easter Sunday (21 April), after which he announced his official title, Pope Leo.

普雷福斯特（Prevost）在复活节星期日（4月21日）的教皇弗朗西斯（Francis）去世后，于本月初当选了天主教会的新主管，此后他宣布了他的正式冠军教皇狮子座。

He also boasts the honour of being the first ever American to attain the position, having been born in Chicago, Illinois - a privilege that didn't go unnoticed by Republican president Donald Trump at the time.

他还拥有成为有史以来第一个获得该职位的美国人的荣誉，该职位曾在伊利诺伊州的芝加哥出生 - 当时共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）并没有注意到这种特权。

"Congratulations to Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was just named Pope. It is such an honor to realize that he is the first American Pope. What excitement, and what a Great Honor for our Country."

“恭喜枢机主教罗伯特·弗朗西斯·普雷斯特斯（Robert Francis Prevost），他刚刚被任命为​​教皇。意识到他是美国第一位教皇，这是一种荣幸。什么是兴奋，对我们国家的荣幸是什么。”

The father-of-five wasn't present for the 'cordial' talks that the Catholic Church's moderate new pope held over the weekend, having taken part in talks in the Middle East instead.

五岁的父亲没有参加“亲切”的谈判，即天主教会在周末举行的天主教中心的新教皇，而是参加了中东的会谈。

However, his VP attended where the politician was seen to be handing Pope Ben a pretty controversial gift.

但是，他的副总裁参加了这位政治家，他们被认为是递给本教皇本的礼物。

The religious icon appeared in photos to be somewhat surprised after Vance presented him with a Chicago Bears American Football jersey, being that he is famously a fan of baseball, and has shown no support of NFL before.

宗教偶像出现在照片中，在万斯（Vance）向他展示了芝加哥熊队美式足球球衣后，他是棒球的粉丝，并且以前没有对NFL表示支持。

The mishap didn't go unnoticed by many eagle-eyed onlookers, however, many of whom pointed out that a Chicago White Sox - another team from the Windy City - baseball jersey would have been more appropriate.

不幸的是，许多鹰眼旁观者并没有注意到，但许多人指出，芝加哥白袜队（来自风城的另一支球队）是棒球泽西岛的一支球衣。

After one pointed out it was an NFL kit, one social media wrote: "Lol ik he's lifelong baseball fan, the fact that they brought that with no prove of him supporting that team is kind of funny.."

一个社交媒体指出这是一个NFL套件后，一位社交媒体写道：“大声笑，他是终生的棒球迷，他们带来了这一事实，没有证明他支持那个团队很有趣。”

Another awkwardly added: "He likes the White Sox,..."

另一个尴尬地补充说：“他喜欢白袜队，……”

Despite receiving a jersey from a different sport, the pope looked thrilled when Vance turned it over to see it had both 'Pope Leo' and the number 'XIV' (14th) on the back.

尽管从另一项运动中获得了一件球衣，但当万斯将其翻了过去，看到它的“教皇狮子座”和“ xiv”（第14位）时，教皇看起来很兴奋。

It is somewhat expected, however, that Pope Ben will butt heads with both Trump and Vance in the coming years, having spoken out against their right-wing political beliefs for some time.

但是，人们有些期望，教皇本将在未来几年与特朗普和万斯都陷入困境，并在一段时间内反对他们的右翼政治信仰。

Following his election earlier this month, the religious leader was asked by press if he has 'any message for the United States' - a question to which he simply replied: "Many."

在本月初当选之后，新闻界询问了宗教领袖，他是否有“对美国的任何信息” - 他简单地回答了一个问题：“许多人”。

Several years earlier, whilst working as a cardinal, the pope highlighted via social media that his politics certainly don't align Trump's beliefs by re-posted an article titled 'JD Vance is wrong: Jesus doesn't ask us to rank our love for others.'

几年前，教皇在担任红衣主教的同时，通过社交媒体强调，他的政治当然不会通过重新发表一篇名为“ JD Vance是错误的文章”来使特朗普的信仰保持一致：耶稣不要求我们对我们对他人的爱进行排名。

Another comment from around the same time retweeted by Pope Ben asked 'Do you not see the suffering? Is your conscience not disturbed?' in response to Trump's meeting with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, during which the politician spoke of deporting US citizens abroad.

教皇本转发了同一时间的另一条评论问：“您没有看到痛苦吗？你的良心没有受到打扰吗？为了回应特朗普与萨尔瓦多总统纳伊布·布克尔（Nayib Bukele）的会面，在此期间，政客们​​谈到将美国公民驱逐出国。

A third instance in 2018 saw the pope retweeting a message originally posted online by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, which read: "There is nothing remotely Christian, American, or morally defensible about a policy that takes children away from their parents and warehouses them in cages. This is being carried out in our name and the shame is on us all."

2018年的第三个实例看到，教皇转发了一条最初由Cardinal Blase J. Cupich在线发布的消息，该消息写道：“没有什么是基督教，美国人或道德上的遥不可及的政策，该政策将孩子带离父母并在笼子里仓库中仓库。
