Fascinating report from the Italian press:
– Dolan emerged as kingmaker among English-speaking cardinals
- Parolin’s bid faltered over the China deal & conservative resistance
– Bergoglians couldn’t unite behind a single candidate
– Pizzaballa was seen as too political
In the end, Robert Prevost emerged as the consensus candidate. An Amerikaner with global appeal, born of Latin roots
He is seen by many in the Global South NOT as a representative of American dominance, but as a bridge to a more outward-looking West
A political masterstroke and, perhaps, a testament to the unpredictable nature of papal conclaves
