Leavitt gives Vatican a blasting for not supporting Trump’s Peace-Plan
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt put the Vatican on blast after it said it won’t participate in Donald Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace.”
The Vatican’s top diplomatic official, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, said on Tuesday that the Vatican believes such crisis situations should be handled by the United Nations, in response to the president’s January invitation for Pope Leo to join his initiative.
“I think it’s deeply unfortunate. I don’t think that peace should be partisan or political or controversial,” Leavitt fired back.
The White House press secretary insisted that the administration wants those invited to join the “Board of Peace,” which is set to oversee the rebuilding of Gaza, with Trump as its chairman.
