Source calls Pentagon meeting with Vatican official 'most unpleasant'
Source: NBC
A meeting between the Pentagon and a Vatican ambassador has raised eyebrows after conflicting reports indicate tensions may be rising between the White House and the Vatican.
A source close to Pope Leo XIV told NBC Chicago political reporter Mary Ann Ahern the meeting between the Pentagon and Cardinal Christophe Pierre was "most unpleasant and confrontational."
The information came amid reports from The Free Press, which stated Vatican officials described the meeting as "a bitter lecture warning that the United States has the military power to do whatever it wantsand that the Church had better take its side."
But the Pentagon denied such claims, calling the Free Press' characterization of it "highly exaggerated and distorted."
