Details of the New Document Prohibiting Masses in the Roman Rite [Latin Mass]

There is indeed a Vatican document more restrictive than Traditionis Custodes (2021), it is supported by Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin and has been presented to Francis, writes Diane Montagna on RemnantNewspaper.com (25 June).
The document prohibits all priests who do not belong to recognised institutes from celebrating Mass in the Roman Rite.
It prohibits bishops from celebrating or authorising the celebration of Mass in their dioceses. All existing permissions granted by the Vatican will be suspended.
Personal parishes run by institutes such as the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter or the Institute of Christ the King would be allowed to continue.
The document is being drafted as an "apostolic constitution". Drafting began in February 2023, just weeks after the death of Benedict XVI.
The first version was mainly written by Vittorio Francesco Viola, Secretary of the Dicastery for the Liturgy. Viola wears the episcopal ring of the inventor of the Novus Ordo, Archbishop Annibale Bugnini (+1982).
But, in the meantime, the Vatican has undermined its power so badly that a new document would change little, since Francis' radical centralism and liturgical radicalism can be ignored "for pastoral reasons".
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
