Rome CNN —Pope Francis will have surgery on his abdomen and remain in a Rome hospital for several days, the Vatican said Wednesday, sparking renewed fears over the 86-year-old’s fragile health. The pope was forced to cancel several work commitments in late May after he was debilitated by a fever. According to medical sources, the intervention is likely related to the surgery Francis experienced in 2021 to remove half of his colon. Should Francis be incapacitated for any length of time, the Vatican could find itself facing something of a constitutional crisis. Francis said he wrote the letter several years ago and gave it to then-Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, who resigned in 2013.

REUTERS/Max Rossi/File PhotoVATICAN CITY, Dec 31 - Former Pope Benedict, who died on Saturday aged 95, was the first pontiff in 600 years to resign, leaving behind a Catholic Church battered by sexual abuse scandals, mired in mismanagement and polarised between conservatives and progressives. Benedict, the first German pope in 1,000 years, had good relations with his successor, Pope Francis, but his continued presence inside the Vatican after he stepped down in 2013 further polarised the Church ideologically. Although he said he would remain "hidden from the world", Benedict did not live up to that promise and in retirement sometimes caused controversy and confusion through his writings. Ganswein's role as a middleman between Benedict and the cardinal was unclear, with many believing he had misled Benedict, the cardinal, or both.

ROME, Dec 18 (Reuters) - Pope Francis revealed in a new interview published on Sunday that after he was elected in 2013 he signed a letter of resignation to be used if someday severe and permanent health problems made it impossible to carry out his duties. Francis, who turned 86 on Saturday and appears to be in good health except for a knee ailment, made the comment in an interview with the Spanish newspaper ABC. Francis said he gave the letter to then Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, who was a holdover from the previous papacy of Benedict XVI. Bertone remained in the position for about six months after Francis was elected on March 13, 2013. Francis has often said that he would resign if health impaired him from running the 1.3 billion-member Roman Catholic Church.

Decizie istorică a papei Francisc. Episcopii şi cardinalii vor putea fi judecaţi de tribunalul laic al VaticanuluiEpiscopii şi cardinalii catolici ai Vaticanului, până în prezent ultra-protejaţi, pot fi de acum convocaţi şi condamnaţi de către tribunalul penal laic al Cetăţii Vaticanului. Suveranul pontif a dorit astfel să afirme principiul egalităţii în faţa justiţiei Vaticanului a tuturor membrilor Bisericii „fără privilegii datând din trecut”, potrivit unui „motu proprio”, un decret emis de papă din proprie iniţiativă. Acest tribunal de primă instanţă a fost extrem de criticat pentru că nu-i putea convoca pe cei mai înalţi prelaţi ai Bisericii. Un fost manager al Fundaţiei Spitalului de Pediatrie Bambino Gesu (deţinut de Vatican), acuzat de deturnare de fonduri, a fost condamnat la un an de închisoare cu suspendare, însă cardinalul Bertone, în centrul dosarului, nu a fost niciodată audiat de judecători.

Sursa foto: APDecizie istorică la Vatican: Papa Francisc a ridicat superimunitatea cardinalilor - acum pot fi condamnațiPapa Francisc a făcut un pas decisiv pentru a face mai credibil tribunalul penal al Statului Cetăţii Vaticanului: episcopii şi cardinalii - până în prezent ultra-protejaţi - pot fi de acum convocaţi şi condamnaţi. Această mini-revoluţie a sistemului de justiţie penală de primă instanţă al Vaticanului, unde oficiază magistraţi italieni laici şi nu preoţi, a fost anunţată într-un text semnat vineri de papa Francisc şi va intra în vigoare la 1 mai. Suveranul pontif a dorit astfel să afirme principiul egalităţii în faţa justiţiei Vaticanului a tuturor membrilor Bisericii "fără privilegii datând din trecut", potrivit unui "motu proprio", un decret emis de papă din proprie iniţiativă.
