During the press conference prior to the signing of a joint statement on sports by the Vatican and other international organizations, the undersecretary of the Dicastery for Culture and Education explained the possibility of the Vatican participating in a future Olympic Games.

The question everyone is asking though is, will the Vatican be there or will the Vatican flag be in the opening ceremony? And I must say that this will require first the establishment, the creation of an Olympic committee.

The creation of this committee would require several meetings to resolve organizational issues. Then, the Vatican Olympic committee would have to be recognized by the International Olympic Committee. 

The most important thing is that the Vatican's participation would serve as a testimony—with the expectation that they show they same level of skill as they did in the World Cycling Championships and the Mediterranean Games.
