Putin Even More Arrogant Then Ever, Keeps Pope Waiting, Gets Told off by Francis on Ukraine

Bloomberg:
Putin kept the leader of 1.2 billion Catholics waiting for 70 minutes -- a rare occurrence at the Vatican. At their first meeting in November 2013, he was 50 minutes late. That was about how long their second encounter lasted. 
During the meeting Francis has repeatedly called for peace in Ukraine, but diplomatically has stopped short of mentioning Russia by name.
