A demonstration of the justified contempt that the Chinese Regime has of the gang currently running the Vatican. They will do nothing to help Cardinal Zen and they would do nothing if the Chinese Regime, after the Second Coming, arrested Christ. The good news is that the saintly Cardinal has been released on bail. The bad news is that he is not Pope.
Also a good indication of the insecurity felt by Xi and his running dogs. It did not take long after Mao passed for the last revolution led by Deng; those waiting in the wings may not wait so long this time if they see cracks in their iron rice bowls.
The Vatican cares nothing for this holy white martyr, Cardinal Zen. While Francis will meet with abortionists, sodomites, atheists, one world folks, and so on and not to convert them, he refused to meet with the Cardinal.
