Pope Francis was unable to read a speech to rabbis across Europe on Monday, citing poor health.

“Good morning, I greet you all and welcome you. Thank you for this visit that I like so much, but It turns out that I am not in good health and, therefore, I prefer not to read the speech.but give it to you and you receive it,” said the head of the Catholic Church, quoted by La Repubblica.

Pope Francis has several audiences scheduled for this Monday, including a meeting with thousands of children from around the world. So far, the Vatican has not commented on Francis’ health.
