Pope Benedict XVI will resign on February 28. The 85-year-old pope is resigning “because of advanced age,” Benedict told the cardinals of the Catholic Church on Monday. “Strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me,” the pope told the cardinals, according to the Vatican. /La Stampa
