Vatican’s Political Mediation in Venezuela: Betrayal of Christ’s Social Kingship
EWTN News reports (January 19, 2026) that the Vatican, through its Secretary of State “Cardinal” Pietro Parolin, attempted diplomatic mediation to prevent U.S. military intervention in Venezuela prior to the capture of socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro. Parolin admitted the Holy See sought “a peaceful solution” through negotiations with Maduro but lamented that “this was not possible.” He described Venezuela’s situation as one of “great uncertainty,” expressing hope for “stability,” “economic recovery,” and “democratization.” The article further notes that “Pope” Leo XIV met with Venezuelan opposition leader MarÃa Corina Machado and echoed calls for respecting “the will of the Venezuelan people” through peaceful means free of “partisan interests.”
Subordination of the Supernatural to Political Pragmatism
The conciliar sect’s intervention reduces the Church’s mission to that of a neutered NGO broker, contrary to the immutable teaching that “the Church is by divine right distinct from and superior to all temporal jurisdictions” (Pius IX, Syllabus of Errors, Proposition 19). Parolin’s fixation on “avoiding bloodshed” ignores the Church’s duty to condemn regimes that systematically violate divine law. Venezuela’s socialist regime has:
- Persecuted Catholic clergy who denounced its tyranny.
- Enforced policies violating the natural law (e.g., confiscation of private property, suppression of parental rights in education).
- Promoted Marxist ideology condemned by Pius XI in Divini Redemptoris as “satanic” and “intrinsically perverse.”
By treating Maduro as a legitimate negotiating partner without demanding his public repentance, the Vatican apparatus granted tacit legitimacy to a regime hostile to the Catholic Faith.
Theological Vacuum and Naturalist Heresy
Parolin’s statement—”We hope [the situation] evolves toward stability, toward an economic recovery… and also toward the democratization of the country”—exposes the conciliar sect’s abandonment of the Church’s raison d’être. Nowhere is there:
“any call for Venezuela’s conversion to the Social Reign of Christ the King, the only source of true peace”
Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (1925) unequivocally teaches:
“Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast [of Christ the King] that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ… The manifold evils which have invaded society are attributable to the fact that the majority of men have thrust Jesus Christ and His holy law out of their lives” (Pius XI, §1, 31).
The conciliar sect’s silence on Venezuela’s anti-Catholic persecution (e.g., harassment of bishops, seizure of Church properties) confirms its complicity in the modernist heresy of religious indifferentism—condemned as “insanity” by Gregory XVI in Mirari Vos (1832) and by Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (Proposition 77).
Conciliar Apostasy Embodied in Diplomatic Theater
The meeting between “Pope” Leo XIV and MarÃa Corina Machado epitomizes the conciliar sect’s alignment with revolutionary liberalism. Machado’s praise of the antipope’s “active support” for a “peaceful transition” reveals the fusion of false ecumenism with globalist politics. Her subsequent meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump—hailed as a “Nobel Peace Prize laureate”—underscores the Vatican apparatus’s idolatry of secular power structures.
This is not diplomacy but capitulation. The true Church, under Pius XII, condemned all collaboration with communist regimes (e.g., 1949 Decree Against Communism). Yet the conciliar sect seeks “dialogue” with socialism while ignoring the blood of martyrs shed by Marxist persecutors—a betrayal St. Pius X denounced as “the great movement of apostasy being organized in every country for the establishment of a One-World Church” (Notre Charge Apostolique, 1910).
Omissions That Condemn
The EWTN article omits critical context exposing the conciliar sect’s apostasy:
- No mention of Venezuela’s destruction of Catholic education: Socialist reforms imposed atheistic curricula, violating parents’ rights under Divini Illius Magistri (Pius XI, 1929).
- No condemnation of Maduro’s attacks on the sacraments: Harassment of priests administering Last Rites to dying protestors.
- No call for Venezuela’s consecration to Christ the King: Instead, Parolin promotes the naturalist idol of “democratization”—a system Pius VI condemned as “liberty of perdition” (Quod Aliquantum, 1791).
The Masonic Fingerprint: False Peace Over Divine Justice
The Vatican’s mediation efforts mirror the Masonic strategy of substituting God’s law with human compromise. As revealed in the False Fatima Apparitions file:
“The message focuses on external threats (communism), omitting the main danger: modernist apostasy within the Church since the beginning of the 20th century… a potential Masonic ‘psychological operation’ against the Church” (False Fatima Apparitions).
Parolin’s plea to “avoid bloodshed” prioritizes temporal tranquility over the eternal salvation of souls—a hallmark of the naturalist heresy. True peace, as defined by St. Augustine, is “the tranquility of order” under Christ’s reign—not the absence of conflict engineered by godless diplomats.
