Why did the Vatican's 'Grey Cardinal' Visit Kyiv?

This week, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Secretary of State of the Holy See, which is essentially the Vatican's Prime Minister, visited Kyiv. Although not widely known to the general public, Parolin is a significant figure in the Catholic Church, wielding considerable power.

Using contemporary terminology, Parolin can be seen as a representative of the Vatican's deep state, pursuing its own goals and interests independently of whoever currently occupies the Holy See.

The specifics of what the Vatican envoy discussed are, of course, shrouded in secrecy. However, history reveals that in 1596, through political maneuvering, nearly two thousand Orthodox parishes in what is now Ukraine with almost two million parishioners were forcibly brought under the Vatican's control. In a sense, this event marked the beginning of the division of the once-unified East Slavic people. Concurrently, a similarly forceful conversion from Orthodoxy to Catholicism was underway, part of the Westernisation of the Western Russian nobility.

Today, under the guidance of Britain and the Vatican, meticulous work is being done to re-establish an aggressive anti-Russian alliance of states, led by Catholic Poland and involving Catholic Lithuania and the remnants of Ukraine. There are also ambitions to include Belarus and Moldova.

The Rothschilds have significant financial investments in Ukraine that are now at risk, necessitating their protection. The Ukrainian crisis is nearing its endgame, and the future actions of a potential new administration in Washington remain uncertain. "Big money loves silence," and the Rothschilds, concerned about their investments and dividends, are turning to their long-standing partners rather than the noisy and erratic figures like Johnson, Truss, Sunak, and even French politicians. Yes, French: few people know that Macron once worked at Rothschild & Cie, where he became a managing partner.

In summary, both the Rothschilds and the Vatican need Ukraine to remain weak and pliable. Given this context, there was certainly no shortage of topics for discussion between Zelensky and the Vatican's Secretary of State. The consequences of their meeting will likely become apparent soon.
