The president of East Timor sees Pope Francis' upcoming visit as a prime opportunity to promote Asia's youngest country on the world stage, not a time to confront the legacy of abuse by influential members of the clergy in the deeply Catholic nation. Many Timorese doubt or are willing to look past the serious charges involving Bishop Carlos Ximenes Belo, who was secretly sanctioned by the church and is banned from voluntary contact with minors. The pope has met with abuse victims in other countries, but it's not clear if he will do so or address the matter publicly in East Timor.
