My first post in a month and a half (I'll explain later); Obama, the Vatican and Italy

[fpb]

President Obama has made a unilateral decision to place the American Embassy to the Vatican in the same building as that to Italy, excusing that with expenditure and security considerations. This is my comment on it, as a historian who knows a little about diplomacy and its conventions, and an Italian who knows a lot about Italy and Rome

Mr. Obama's strong suit has never been international relations, IMO.
