Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni told CatholicNewsAgency.com of his "concern" at the "episode of violence that hurts people and democracy, causing suffering and death".
The Holy See "joins the US bishops in praying for America, for the victims and for peace in the country, so that the motives of the violent will never prevail". Francis made no comment on the incident during his Sunday noon Angelus.
Washington's Cardinal Wilton Gregory (pro-Biden) issued a statement on 14 July:
"I ask the people of the Archdiocese of Washington and all people of good will to keep former President Trump and all those killed or injured in last night's violence in our prayers. May those who work to keep our country safe be strengthened in their duties."
