Archbishop Paul Gallagher meets Wang Yi in Munich

During the Munich Security Conference earlier this month Archbishop Paul Gallagher, the Vatican's Secretary of relations with States met Wang Yi, the Chinese Foreign Minister.

It was the first time for more than 50 years that such a high-level meeting has taken place between the Vatican and China.

At the meeting the provisional agreement that was signed between both parties in 2018 was discussed.

It is generally believed that candidates for the episcopate will be approved by the Chinese government with the pope having the final word on the appointment.
