Vatican Conclave: Cardinal Becciu Quits Papal Vote Amid Controversy, 135 Cardinal to Elect New Pope
Cardinal Angelo Becciu has officially withdrawn from the May 7 papal conclave under intense legal and ethical scrutiny.
Once a top Vatican official, Becciu was convicted of embezzlement and now steps aside āfor the good of the Church,ā following Pope Francisā private instructions barring his vote.
His dramatic exit reshapes the high-stakes race to succeed Pope Francis.
With 135 electors under 80 years old set to vote in the Sistine Chapel, Cardinals Parolin, Tagle, Zuppi, and Turkson emerge as key contenders to lead 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide.

President Trump has signed a landmark U.S.āUkraine minerals deal, granting Washington priority access to Kyivās natural resources while backing post-war rebuilding. Just moments after the agreement, Trump approved $50 million in aid to Ukraine, signaling a major policy shift. Critics point to his earlier boasts of ending the war in āone day,ā contrasting with rising tensions and a stalled peace process. A Vatican meeting with Zelensky followed Pope Francisā funeral, marking Trumpās first real defiance of Putin. The move has stunned Russia and could reshape the warās diplomatic landscape.
