Résumé
During his protracted stay in Siena, in 1460, Pope Pius II received an embassy from King Enrique IV of Castile. In his reply to the ambassadors, the pope acknowledged that the Congress of Mantua had failed to unite the European kings and princes in a common crusade against the Turks. Undaunted, he expressed his conviction that God Himself would cause the kings and princes to later join the crusade – it was after all God’s own cause.
