Vatican [Allegedly] Knows China’s "Ugly Face" But Wants To Betray It – Cardinal Zen

Hong Kong Cardinal Joseph Zen revealed to UcaNews.com (November 9), that Chinese priests “have cried” to him because they were told by State officials to join the Communist State church because Pope Francis has signed a deal with the regime.

According to Zen some priests have gone into hiding after the agreement “because they do not know what to do.” As the deal is secret, “they do not know if what [the Communist] officials say is true or not.”

Therefore, two weeks ago, Zen went to Rome and handed to Pope Francis a seven-page letter which contains information about the Chinese Catholic Church which is forced to live in the underground.

Zen called Vatican secretary of State Pietro Parolin who is responsible for the controversial deal “very experienced”. He believes that Parolin sees the “China’s ugly face” and “does not trust the Chinese side.“

“He only uses them to achieve the purpose of establishing diplomatic relations.”

[However, so far, the Chinese Communists have used the Vatican, not the other way around.]
