In last nights debate, even the far-left Socialist Bernie Sanders finally admitted that Nicholas Maduro is a "vicious tyrant."
It appears that Francis is the last Western leader to still support the dictator Maduro.
In June, the far-left National Catholic Reporter said "Maduro tried to claim he had the support of Pope Francis."
(National Catholic Reporter, "Vatican supports new elections to solve Venezuelan crisis," June 15, 219)
The leftist newspaper, like Sanders at the debate, appears to want to distance Francis from the "vicious tyrant," but Francis has never stated he doesn't support Maduro.
In fact, in January, Francis in classic Argentinean Peronist equivocation said he still supported Maduro:
"I support... the Venezuelan people... including those who are on one side [the Maduro tyranny] and the other [the freedom fighters]."
(Catholic News Agency, "In leaked letter to 'Mr. Maduro,' Pope Francis reiterates call for peace," February 13, 2019) German people
Imagine if Pope Pius XII during World War II had said:
"I support... the German people... including those on one side [the Hitler tyranny] and the other [the freedom fighters]."
It must be lonely for Francis to be the last major Western leader still supporting the Venezuelan "vicious tyrant."
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church.
