  • Pope’s call for ‘obedience’ on Mass restrictions both pastoral and political

    • Apr 28, 2020

    Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte got a badly needed favor Tuesday morning, as the pontiff essentially hit the off switch on mounting Catholic resistance to the PM’s program for recovery by calling for “prudence and obedience.”

  • In spat over Mass, Italy’s PM may need the bishops more than they need him

    • Apr 27, 2020

    The Italian bishops have appeared to threaten that if they don’t get a satisfactory response from the government on a date for restarting public Masses, they may be prepared to assert the authority afforded under religious freedom provisions of the Italian constitution and act on their own.

  • Non-European Pope mounts defense of EU amid coronavirus ‘paralysis’

    • Apr 23, 2020

  • Italian bishop breaks ranks to publicly challenge coronavirus restrictions

    Pope, Italian PM likely talk “now” and “then” of the coronavirus

    • Mar 31, 2020

    Despite a news blackout, it’s not difficult to guess what was on the agenda for Monday’s conversation between Pope Francis and Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, and it can be summarized in two words: “Now” and “then.”

  • Pope says coronavirus clampdowns no excuse for ‘indifference’ to suffering

    • Mar 12, 2020

    “We’re preoccupied for our own things, and we forget the children who are hungry, we forget the poor people at the borders who are seeking freedom, these forced migrants fleeing hunger and war who find only walls – walls made of iron, of barbed wire, but walls that don’t let them pass,” Pope Francis said.
