Pope Leo XIV prays for the victims of September 11 to mark the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks in the USA

Now13 September 2026 at 19:20

Pope Leo XIV prayed for the victims of the September 11 attacks during the Sunday blessing at the Vatican. The moment served to mark the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks that occurred in the United States in 2001.

The Pontiff made an appeal for peace in a world that continues to be marked by conflicts. During his speech, he remembered all the victims of that tragic day.

The Pope, originally from Chicago, also prayed for all the people who continue to suffer the consequences of the attacks to this day. This was the way the new Pope found to pay tribute to those who lost their lives 25 years ago.

Why this matters

The article reports on Pope Leo XIV's reflection on the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, an event that profoundly changed global geopolitics. Although the Pope resides in the Vatican, his North American origin and his call for peace in times of conflicts are relevant to readers in Portugal and around the world, who follow the geopolitical and humanitarian consequences of these events.

Se o seu carro passou na inspeção, atenção: não significa que esteja tudo legal e este é o detalhe que muitos confundemPhoto by sueinpng on Pexels

If your car passed the inspection, be careful: it doesn't mean everything is legal, and this is the detail many confuse

Many vehicle owners in Portugal mistakenly think that passing the periodic inspection means all modifications made to the car are automatically legalized, but this is a common confusion. The periodic inspection only verifies the technical and safety conditions of the vehicle, not replacing the administrative procedures of authorization, homologation, and endorsement required to legally transform a vehicle. Changes such as window tint films, wheel replacements, or tire dimensions may require prior authorization from IMT, extraordinary inspection, and updating of the registration certificate. The Road Code provides fines between 250 and 1,250 euros for unauthorized transformations, which may also result in vehicle seizure until approval in extraordinary inspection.
