Pope Francis appoints a woman to high-ranking Vatican role, cites aptitude for 'healing relationships'

The Holy Father has made an unprecedented decision, certainly, which, beyond myself personally, represents an indication of an attention towards women. But the responsibility is connected to the job, rather than to the fact of being a woman.
