Alessandro de Carolis – Vatican City

The rhythm decreased, as he asked for his health, but “the government of the church is in his hands.” PITRO PAROLIN explains how it changed his admission to the hospital first and his signs now the rhythm and the quantity, but he never cut off the Pope’s interest in matters that require his decision or direction. In an interview with the Italian newspaper Corrier del Della SerraThe Foreign Minister deepens the routine of the Holy See, saying that if “the Pope does not stop the rule of the church, even during the days of his admission to the hospital in Gemelli”, it is also correct that there are “many other routine issues that the collaborators can do so that it does not continue without consultations, based on the indicators that were previously received and the strong in strength.”

In the name of the Pope

The Cardinal Parolin says that those who are presented to the Pope in this period are only “the issues that he and after he decides. What announces the formula, but also can be delegated, if necessary, to one of the collaborators, which is pronounced on behalf of Pontif. So, if the Pope continues, the Pope gives permission to the Cardinal Marcelo Simaro, the governor of the causes of the saints, he can “read the formula in his name, if he could not do it at that time.”

All this, Cardinal Parolin notes, “will also rely on what the Holy Father feels in those days.” Now the important thing for Francisco, he says, “he can rest and recover” during the two months referred to by doctors, in the hope that the “reduced activity period” with regard to his previous rhythms “can help him resume his ministry completely.”
