Vatican bishops in the case of the arrest of the Nazis in 1943, Pope Pius XII should have to flee to Portugal, Spain or the United States. This is left is Pius XII, says the newly disclosed documents from the archives of the Vatican. A newly discovered circumstances, writes the London newspaper The Telegraph.
On preparing the Germans regard the occupation of the Vatican of Pius XII and his arrest became known a few years ago, but the Pontiff proposed countermeasures Press learned only now. Pius XII did not intend to leave the Vatican on the goodwill and was confident that if the Germans vyvezut arrest him by force. Since then he thought to himself not the head of the Roman Catholic Church, as a private individual, and would act under the name, which he wore prior to the adoption of Sanaa - Eudzhenio Pachelli. Following the Cardinal might begin to choose the new Pontiff to Catholics around the world will not be left without a spiritual leader.
Adolf Hitler had planned a conspiracy against Pius XII, because she feared that his influence will contribute to the anti-fascist resistance in the Catholic countries of Europe. In addition, Pius XII condemned the destruction of the Jews (and secretly authorized a series of operations to rescue them), and this fact, historians believe, is also setting Führer against the Pontiff. It has been suggested that high-ranking SS officer Karl Wolff, who was entrusted with the arrest of the Pope, the Vatican warned of the forthcoming plan. It may be that he persuaded Hitler to abandon the idea of the arrest of Pius XII.
Publication of new documents on the relationship the Pope and the Nazis, writes The Telegraph, may be a new attempt to bring the Vatican's canonization of Pius XII. The plan is criticized by representatives of Jewish communities in Italy and a number of Israeli organizations. They believe that Pius XII should be canonized since publicly denounced the destruction of Jews.
