Who is Pietro Parolin?
PITRO PAROLIN has been working since 2013, as Foreign Minister in the Vatican position-which mainly collects the positions of the Prime Minister and an foreign minister, as well as “No. 2” of the Pope.
Sources with the knowledge of the Vatican heard it CNNThose who spoke on the condition of anonymity, say they see Parolin as a strong candidate and highlight the experience of nearly 40 years in the diplomacy of the Apostolic Chair.
The Vatican describes the Cardinal as a person “especially specialized in matters related to the Middle East and the geopolitical situation of the Asian continent.”
Between 2009 and 2013, he was the Apostolic Nonsio (a kind of “Ambassador of the Holy See”) in Venezuela, at a time of the crisis in the relationship of the Catholic Church with the Hugo Chavez government. Parolin also played an important role in the broker of negotiations that led to the resumption of Cuba and the United States of America in 2015.
If the diplomatic Cardinal profile in the world of conflict is a swarm as a strong point for some experts, then others highlight their negatives.
The most prominent source CNNOn the condition that his identity is not disclosed, which is seen as “the Vatican bureaucrators” and it is expected that “this is a less likely number in the papacy.” “Although Paroline is commensurate with the criteria for continuity and ease of expression, it does not have the most expensive history of the Pope,” he said.
The Australian Vatican Paul Collins assessed that Parolin had a strong identity with Francisco’s ideas, “but he has no pastoral experience and has not managed diocese.”
Collins also cited “complex financial scandals” that occurred in the state secretariat during the Cardinal period. “At the beginning of the papal of Francisco, he was seen as a” hot “name, but its brightness decreased significantly,” he added.
Who is Louis Antonio Talal?
Honorary Archbishop in Manila and announced the Cardinal in 2012, Tagle was already the title of “The Asian Francisco” because of his relationship with the poor.
“CRUX”, which specializes in covering the Catholic Church and the Vatican, has published an article, describing the Cardinal Talat as “a moderate directed to social justice, known for his defense of immigrants and the poor, who talks about his personal life about humility and simplicity.”
A source said CNN This tyrant is a “strong candidate”. “It has a history of social commitment and comes from the east, as the church is usually more traditional than Europe. It can make the bridge easier with conservatives and an increase in the internationalization of the church will appear,” he said.
Collins believes that administrative problems in the International Charitable Corporation during the Tagle administration can explore them among the Cardinals. Another source also highlights the fact that Tagle comes from a family of Chinese origin and China is a sensitive issue in the church.
Pontificate of Francisso signed a historic agreement in 2018 that appears to be relations with Beijing, but the agreement faced criticism – especially from the conservative wing.
Papabili lists also bring other Cardinals with the chances of electing the Pope, and like the last mentioned examples, will be compatible with the idea of Francis’ continuity and unifying the reforms that started.
They are the French Cardinal Jean -Marc Avilin, Maltese Mario Grish, who works as Minister of Bishops Synodes, Portuguese Cardinal Jose Toleenino de Mendona, American Robert Francis Prevost, British Arthur Roche.
Although it is very unlikely, experts have also analyzed the possibility of everyone’s surprise and the cruise choose a conservative and contradictory name with the church’s ideas in the past decade.
