Was Francis a left -wing Pope? Rarely the members of the socialists, the greens and the France of France (LFI, the radical left) have been so inclined to embrace the legacy of a pontiff as much as that of Pope Francis, born Jorge Bergoglio, who died on Monday, April 21.

Another hand, such as having enjoyed a popular grace.
