At the beginning of his pontificate in 2013 when Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone was still Secretary of State, Pope Francis handed in a resignation letter"in case of impediment due to health reasons." Revealing this decision, which Pope Paul VI had also taken during his time, Pope Francis spoke about this matter in a wide-ranging interview granted to the Spanish daily ABC. The full interview appeared on Sunday with previews posted a day earlier.

The Pope met with the newspaper's editor, Julián Quirós, and its Vatican correspondent, Javier Martínez-Brocal, when he addressed numerous topics on current events regarding the life of the Church and the world. The conversations touched on the war in Ukraine, where the Pope said he does not see"a short-term end to it since it is a world war," the cases of abuse by clergy, the role of women in the Roman Curia , Benedict XVI's 2013 resignation, and his own possible resignation.The Pope spoke about the existence of his letter of resignation, saying"I have already signed my resignation. It was when Tarcisio Bertone was Secretary of State.

The Pope sees no short-term end to the war on the horizon:"This is a world war. Let us not forget that. There are already several hands involved in the war. It is global. I think a war is fought when an empire starts to weaken, and when there are weapons to use, to sell and to test. It seems to me that there are many interests involved." The Pope has spoken out against the war more than a hundred times, saying,"I do what I can.

Asked about the issue of Catalonia, the Pope said that"each country must find its own historical path to solve these problems. There is no single solution." He then cites the case of North Macedonia or South Tyrol, in Italy, with its own status.
