Lisbon: On Sept 5, Pope Francis will not be able to visit Moscow and Kyiv on his doctor’s orders due to a knee problem. In an excerpt published on CNN’s website, Francis was asked about his previously announced plans to visit Ukraine and Russia. “Now I cannot go because after the trip to Canada there’s been a bit of a setback with the knee recovery and the doctor banned it, saying ‘Before Kazakhstan, you cannot travel,'” Francis said.
