CWN Editor's Note: Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican Secretary of State, met on January 13 with the apostolic nuncios serving in the Middle East, to discuss the challenges facing the Church in that region.
The cardinal—who has been on a visit to Jordan, where he presided at the opening of a new church on the site of Jesus’ Baptism—also had a “cordial” phone conversation with Lebanon’s newly elected President Michael Aoun. He expressed satisfaction that the leadership vacuum in Lebanon had been resolved after a lengthy political stalemate, quickly followed by the selection of a new prime minister, Nawaf Salam.
