Roman Catholic cardinals will start electing a new pope on Wednesday, sequestering themselves in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel after a Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica. The conclave – a tradition dating back to medieval times – seeks a successor to Pope Francis whom they hope can unite a diverse but divided Church. France24 Correspondent Seema Gupta is joined by Vatican journalist Junno Arocho Esteves for a further analysis on this historic moment.
