AP | By Cara Anna

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The Vatican's envoy to the United Nations strongly hinted that Pope Francis would visit New York next year to address world leaders at the General Assembly, saying Thursday that the coming 70th anniversary of the world body would be "the ideal time."

Archbishop Bernardito Auza, the permanent observer of the Holy See, also told The Associated Press that "if he comes to Philadelphia, he will come to New York."
