JD Vance met with the Vatican’s second highest-ranking official during his visit to Rome, a meeting that took the US vice president to the governing body of his own faith amid tension with the US over immigration policy.
The Vatican secretary of state, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, and Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher spoke privately with Vance on Saturday, talks described as “cordial” by the Holy See. In a statement, the Vatican said there’d been an “exchange of opinions” over global humanitarian issues, “with particular attention to migrants, refugees, and prisoners.”
