It’s good to see the new envoy accepted and welcomed.

"VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI pledged on Friday that the U.S. Catholic church will keep working to shape American consciences on ethical questions such as abortion as he praised the United States for its “vibrant” democracy.

He told new U.S. Ambassador Miguel H. Diaz, a university theology professor who is a Roman Catholic, that he was confident the two sides would continue to enjoy “fruitful dialogue and cooperation in the promotion of human rights, and the service of justice, solidarity and peace.”

Did you expect the Pope to damn Obama and hurl anathemas on him?

When dealing with envoys from sovereign states, compliments are part of the art of diplomacy.
