VATICAN THE VISIBLE SIDE BY GILDAS DE LA MONNERAYE
The police forces of Italy are not allowed into the Vatican. Only the papal staff is permitted to carry out security tasks behind the walls of the pontifical enclave in Rome (Pontifical Swiss Guards, Gendarmerie Corps of the Vatican city...).An exception is St. Peter's Square. The huge piazza, partly enclosed by colonnades, is legally part of the Vatican state, but at the same time it is freely accessible. Under an agreement between the Holy See and Italy, Italian police (Carabinieri, State Police) may be asked to assist Vatican personnel in keeping order and carrying out security assignments in the square..© gildas de la monneraye (KEYSTONE/Gildas de la Monneraye)
