China has reacted positively to the appointment of Monsignor Giuseppe Lin Yuntuan as auxiliary bishop, seeing it as an important step in its dialog with the Vatican. The Chinese Foreign Ministry said it was ready to work together to improve relations, strengthened through constructive dialog. The appointment comes in the context of a landmark 2018 agreement to coordinate the appointment of Catholic bishops in China, but its implementation has encountered difficulties. Although the Vatican and Beijing have no formal diplomatic relations, the Pope reaffirms his commitment to the agreement.
