as the world said, good bye to another memorable year ah, attributes have poured in from around the world for former. pope benedict who died saturday at the age of 90. 5 help, frances honored his predecessor at an evening service in st. peter's basilica in rome, benedict's health had been declined for several years, and he had been largely absent from public view belt, stolen announcing that a formidable benedict and many are being de respects that though he was a pope nor go down in history for an enormously significant fact which was his resignation that had not happened for 600 years and it was a gesture of great freedom, great audacity, and great courage. religious cletus praised him for being the 1st to meet the

victims of fiction abuse within the catholic church for he was elected. he was in charge of the doctrinal section, the seat, which had responsibility for issues to do with the sexual abuse commission on chris . so he personally was responsible for the layer size issue over $400.00 priests around the world that sexual abuse. got it. what's the device official? benedict post repeatedly criticized for not doing enough. i don't remember him as a religious leader was me was did no trip within the morton weren't it's if his look was, is sure he was surely a very strong thinker. i love to law the positions she took on emotionally and homosexuality. they're really of a different age. i think his dogma, if he wasn't living in the same world. but for many people in germany, book benedict was a source of fright. he was germany's 1st pontiff in almost 500 years in

the gotcha, pretty. in this morning, down the house where benedict was born has been opened and the book of condolences is on display on no to which but i am of course concerned unsaddled. but you have to say, he already wrote in february after 10 years as prob ameritas, that he is now ready in prayer and devotion. he said he is ready to go before his judge. so it is a good idea for and that he is ready for the last earthly and journey. it's the addition big book. benedict body will be displayed in st. peter's by silly kind. john for 3 days, followed by his funeral on thursday. let's go straight to our special correspondent, i r e e for him in rome. ah, how are people in the vatican paying their respects?

so yesterday, right after the announcement was made, we saw the crowd slowly, but surely gro around here around the area of saint peter's square to pay their respects and starting tomorrow. pope, former po bennett, the 16th body will be lying and stayed at saint peter's basilica right behind me. and so we are expecting that mourners will be pouring and to give their condolences and pay their last respects last night during the last mass here in, in the vatican. the current sitting pope paid his respect to his predecessor, saying that the church was lucky to have him. and while there is a sense of sadness, monica, there's also a sense of acceptance and that this news was really expected. people have really been brief for it already. on wednesday, the sitting pope had asked the faithful to pray for his predecessors, saying that his, his health had been deteriorating. right. and of course,

the fact that benedict, the 16th removed himself from the limelight in the years after his papacy, in what way would you say, has that affected his perception amongst catholics? i think the official reason why he was, he stepped on was, you know, for advanced, advanced age and health. but there's, there's, there is an opinion that this, that he stepped down because of the amount of candles that had marred his rain. whether that's the child abuse scandal, or there's also a banking scandal. and so it was seen that he was stepping back and kind of giving space to a more you know, someone knew someone who could try to lease casting you light on the catholics. while he was not isolated. there was a completely isolated and his successor did visit him on somewhat regular basis and

you know, there, there was still a kind of sympathy to his more conservative opinions among the faithful. right. i mean, it was quite a unique situation. suddenly fumbled and times having to hopes there at the same time, they even made a movie about that. for the past 10 years. they have been to pope's in the that you can. how did that dynamic work for the catholic church? i mean, it's really no secret that the current pope and his predecessor had very, very different opinions. the pre assess a po benedict, the former pope is more of an academic, more somebody who spend a lot of time reading and writing and praying. while the current pope is more interested in a pastoral work and, and had generally more liberal views, so you know, the tension in their opinions and in the style in which they lead the church is very, very different. at the same time, outwardly, at least, their relationship was a amicable. and as i mentioned,

the sitting pope made an effort to regularly visit his predecessor and speak well of him in public. and so, you know, there were some tet tensions in thought, but at the same time, outwardly, they wanted to give a united front in the line. thank you so much. i abraham reporting for us from the vatican in rome. thank you. i am and he has a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world qindzhong own house or that north korea's military to drastically increase its nuclear arsenal. the comments came just hours after north korea marked the new year with another ballistic missile launch following a record number of tests. last year, south korea's president called the launch a provocation and said his country should retaliate. croatia is now officially part of the use open border, shang an agreement,
