Pope Francis, during a meeting with Bulgarian President Rumen Radev, has called on Bulgaria to open its arms to well-meaning migrants.

Pope Francis has arrived in Bulgaria, starting a three-day Balkans trip in which he is expected to make overtures towards Orthodox Christians and honour Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

"Allow me to suggest that your eyes, heart and hand, as is your tradition, are not closed to those who knock on your doors," he said.Bulgaria - which has erected a wire fence along its exterior EU border to hinder migrants - is in the position to encourage interactions between various cultures and religions, said Francis.

Later Sunday, Francis is scheduled to meet the leader of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Neophyte, and pray at the Orthodox Cathedral. However, the Bulgarian Orthodox Church has ruled out interfaith prayers or services with Francis.

Semenya says 'hell no' to taking testosterone medicationThe future of double Olympic champion Caster Semenya is in doubt after she ruled out taking medication to lower testosterone levels to comply with new rules. Good on her...! She has up to 15 to 20 times testosterone of an avg female, they’re asking her to reduce it to 3 to 4 times. These are complex issues, but the biggest failure here was allowing her to race to begin with. Perhaps it’s best to let her see out her career & don’t repeat the mistake? Why are men not disqualified for having a natural advantage? I think it’s time there was a female panel to make these decisions
