Will Cardinal Becciu vote? Press report he has pulled out

Conclave, Cardinal Versaldi: "Becciu an estimable person but we will verify whether he will be able to vote".

Very appropriate dress on the right

"Cardinal Becciu is a very estimable person. But you journalists when you interview after a crime, the neighbours say 'he was a good person'. And that's not to say that a good person cannot do evil. I am not saying that Becciu did harm, but that is to be verified. There has been a judgement, there will be an appeal and you know that until there is a final judgement one is innocent. Here, we will verify'. This is what Cardinal Giuseppe Versaldi, Prefect Emeritus of the Congregation for Catholic Education and former President of the Prefecture for Economic Affairs of the Holy See, said in conversation with journalists before entering the pre-Conclave General Congregation.
