The Supreme Court justice, in address dedicated to protecting religious liberty, criticized Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau and French President Emmanuel Macron, among others.

Justice, appearing for the first time in public since penning the opinion that reversed Roe v. Wade, mocked foreign criticism of the decision during a speech he delivered in Rome.

His speech comes a month after the end of a blockbuster term where the court’s majority not only ended a federal right to abortion, but also ruled in favor of religious conservatives in two cases. He noted one of the critics was UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who announced his plan to resign in early July, days after the opinion was issued.
