US President Barack Obama is looking forward to meet Pope Francis in the near future, the White House said today, without giving details of the meeting.
"The President looks forward to meeting with the pope in the near future," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters.
"I do not have any more details for you on that, timing or location, except to say that the president very much looks forward to a meeting," Carney said in response to a question on the announcement made by the Secretary of State John Kerry in Vatican.
