Pope Leo XIV establishes new Chinese diocese amid Vatican-China tensions over church borders.
Pope Leo XIV has established the Diocese of Zhangjiakou in northern China, replacing two smaller dioceses, Xuanhua and Xiwanzi.
The move highlights ongoing tensions over China's independent redrawing of Catholic diocesan borders.
The new bishop, Father Joseph Wang Zhengui, was appointed under the Vatican's provisional agreement with China on bishop appointments.
The diocese covers 14 districts with a population of over 4 million, including about 85,000 Catholics.
