Summary
The FSSPX, led by Cardinal Fernández, has taken over sole responsibility for negotiations with the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) in Rome. According to sources from the Catholic Herald newspaper in Italy, Cardinal Koch, Prefect of the Department for Promoting Christian Unity at the CDF, announced that he is no longer involved in these dialogues. He stated, “I am not responsible for the dialogue with FSSPX. This responsibility lies with the Department of the Doctrine of the Faith.” This confirms the complete transfer to Cardinal Fernández who now handles negotiations with the FSSPX independently without involvement from other members of the CDF or clergy. This change aligns with reports from Italian media, indicating that the FSSPX has been cut off from ongoing dialogue and cooperation within the Vatican.
