Vatican re-sends pope鈥檚 message to China
Print Edition
CHINA may not have received a message Pope Francis sent from his plane on his way to South Korea on Thursday, so it was re-sent through the Chinese Embassy in Rome, the Vatican said yesterday.
Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi told a briefing there may have been a technical failure when the radio message was sent by the Pope, addressed to Chinese President Xi Jinping, as the pope’s plane was flying over China.
The Chinese Embassy to Italy in Rome asked the Vatican for a copy. China and the Vatican have no diplomatic relations.
The telegram read: “Upon entering Chinese airspace, I extend best wishes to your Excellency and your fellow citizens and I invoke the divine blessing of peace and wellbeing upon the nation.”
