Social Network
Cardinal Mamberti is not known to have a personal social media presence, as his public life is largely confined to his official duties within the Church.
He was appointed Secretary for Relations with States by Pope Benedict XVI on 15 September 2006. This post is generally seen as the equivalent of Foreign Minister of the Holy See. In 2007 Archbishop Mamberti was awarded the Knight Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic.
Education
Mamberti studied law in Strasbourg and Paris before pursuing higher education in Canon Law at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. This education is typical for someone in his position, providing a strong foundation in both secular and ecclesiastical law.
He has academic degrees in civil and canon law. He entered the Holy See's diplomatic service and worked in the apostolic nunciatures in Algeria, Chile and Lebanon, in the Holy See's office at United Nations headquarters in New York City and in the Section for Relations with States of the Secretariat of State (Holy See).
On 1 July 2024, he became the senior elector among those cardinals with the rank of cardinal deacon. He retained that role when he became the senior member of the order of cardinal deacons, the protodeacon of the College of Cardinals, upon the death of Cardinal Renato Martino on 28 October 2024. Serving as the cardinal protodeacon for the 2025 papal conclave, Mamberti had the duty of announcing the election of Pope Leo XIV to the world. He did not impose the pallium at the papal inauguration of Leo XIV (as expected of the cardinal-protodeacon), because he was in hospital due to cardiac fibrillation.
