Pope Benedict XVI is to resign at the end of this month after nearly eight
years as the head of the Catholic Church, saying he is too old to continue
at the age of 85.
The unexpected development surprised governments, Vatican-watchers and even
the 85-year-old's closest aides.
The Vatican says it expects a new Pope to be elected before the end of
March, ahead of Easter.
Papal resignations are not unknown, but this is the first in the modern era.
The BBC's Alan Johnston in Rome says the news has come "out of the blue",
and that there was no speculation whatsoever about the move in recent days.

At this age my brother wants more rest
Georg RatzingerPope's brother
Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti is quoted as saying he was "greatly
shaken by this unexpected news".
A Vatican spokesman, Father Federico Lombardi, said that even the Pope's
closest aides did not know what he was planning to do and were left
"incredulous". He added that the decision showed "great courage" and
"determination".
The brother of the German-born Pope said the pontiff had been advised by his
doctor not to take any more transatlantic trips and had been considering
stepping down for months.
Talking from his home in Regensburg in Germany, Georg Ratzinger said his
brother was having increasing difficulty walking and that his resignation
was part of a "natural process".
He added: "His age is weighing on him. At this age my brother wants more
rest."
'Incapacity'
At 78, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was one of the oldest new popes in history
when elected.
He became Pope in April 2005 following John Paul II's death.
He took the helm as one of the fiercest storms the Catholic Church has faced
in decades - the scandal of child sex abuse by priests - was breaking.

POPE BENEDICT XVI
* At 78, one of the oldest new popes in history when elected in 2005
* Born in Germany in 1927, joined Hitler Youth during WWII and was
conscripted as an anti-aircraft gunner but deserted
* As Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger spent 24 years in charge of
Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith - once known as the Holy Office
of the Inquisition
* A theological conservative, with uncompromising views on
homosexuality and women priests
In a statement, the pontiff said: "After having repeatedly examined my
conscience before God, I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due
to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the
Petrine ministry.
"I am well aware that this ministry, due to its essential spiritual nature,
must be carried out not only with words and deeds, but no less with prayer
and suffering.
"However, in today's world, subject to so many rapid changes and shaken by
questions of deep relevance for the life of faith, in order to steer the
boat of Saint Peter and proclaim the Gospel, both strength of mind and body
are necessary, strength which in the last few months, has deteriorated in me
to the extent that I have had to recognise my incapacity to adequately
fulfil the ministry entrusted to me.
"For this reason, and well aware of the seriousness of this act, with full
freedom I declare that I renounce the ministry of Bishop of Rome, Successor
of Saint Peter, entrusted to me by the cardinals on 19 April 2005, in such a
way, that as from 28 February 2013, at 20:00 hours, the See of Rome, the See
of Saint Peter, will be vacant and a conclave to elect the new Supreme
Pontiff will have to be convoked by those whose competence it is."
A German government spokesman said he was "moved and touched" by the
surprise resignation of the pontiff.
"The German government has the highest respect for the Holy Father, for what
he has done, for his contributions over the course of his life to the
Catholic Church.
"He has left a very personal signature as a thinker at the head of the
Church, and also as a shepherd."
There is a clause in Church Canon Law saying that a papal resignation is
valid if the decision is made freely and manifested properly.
