CWN Editor's Note: The Spanish government has delayed approval of the nomination of archbishop Piero Pioppo to the new apostolic nuncio in that country, reportedly as an expression of dissatisfaction with relations between the government and the Spanish hierarchy.
The Spanish bishops have been at odds with the government over abortion, gender ideology, religious education, the bishops’ handling of clerical-abuse complaints, and proposals for early elections.
