Pope Francis and world leaders pay tribute to Benedict XVI – BBC News


Pope Francis has led tributes to his predecessor, Benedict XVI, who has died, aged 95.

Benedict had been "noble" and "kind" – and "gifted" to the Roman Catholic Church, the Pope said.

US President Joe Biden and Brazilian President Lula are among dozens of leaders to praise the former pontiff.

Benedict resigned in 2013 because of poor health – the first pope to do so.
