Cherry Blossoms Viewing in Japan
Distrust of the Vatican
The Vatican has great networks all over Europe in these centuries if not for the past 2000 years.
It must have a great network to collect information before WWII, too.
So, the Vatican must have known what was going on in Germany in 1930s and early 1940s.
But, the Vatican did not announce to the world that Nazi Germany was killing millions of Judaists.
Another doubt on the Vatican behaviors is that it might not like to see Muslims succeed politically and economically. The Vatican might like to see Muslims forever living in poor conditions. Christian Europeans must be always a cut above Muslims, probably in their doctrine. So, the Vatican might be a big factor for continuing failures of Islamic nations in these decades.
Anyway, Christ is all and Christ is in all. Religion is all and religion is in all. Even in politics and economy the Vatican must be a big factor especially around Europe, or in the Islamic world.

Rom 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
Rom 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
