New Rome Mayor Virginia
Raggi will see Pope Francis Friday, Vatican Spokesman Father
Federico Lombardi confirmed Thursday.
Raggi, 37, the Italian capital's first woman mayor, will be
received by Francis at 10:30, Lombardi said.
The anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S) mayor, who won
by a landslide earlier this month, has vowed to make sure the
Holy See pays property tax on all its Rome non-ecclesial
buildings.
