Events in Vietnam

A visit to Independent Catholic News (ICN) has drawn my attention to recent events in Vietnam. ICN have posted a number of news reports on Vietnam in recent days. Today's report describes the protests that have occurred as the authorities in Hanoi have destroyed the Apostolic Nunciature.

The protests in Vietnam have been prompted by the seizure of Church properties and their demolition or conversion to secular uses. An analytic report from a Redemptorist priest in Vietnam, which makes thought provoking reading, can be found here.
