German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, has joined in a row that is sweeping across Europe and the Catholic world. She stated Tuesday that the Vatican's clarifications over the readmission of a bishop who queries the Holocaust, do not go far enough.
"In my opinion these clarifications are not yet sufficient," Merkel said, the BBC reported.
"This should not be allowed to pass without consequences," Merkel said at a news conference in Berlin.
"This is not just a matter, in my opinion, for the Christian, Catholic and Jewish communities in Germany but the Pope and the Vatican should clarify unambiguously that there can be no denial," she said.
The controversy erupted in January after Pope Benedict XVI lifted the excommunication of Bishop Richard Williamson, who had said no Nazi gas chambers existed.
Pope Benedict has distanced himself from those beliefs and expressed "full and indisputable solidarity" with Jews.
