Dutch bishop Rob Mutsaerts has published a sharp critique of Cardinal Fernández’s recent DDF document on the Marian title Co-Redemptrix, accusing the cardinal of stirring “confusion regarding the Marian title Co-Redemptrix”.

In a blog post, Bishop Mutsaerts, Auxiliary Bishop of the Diocese of ’s-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands, wrote, “There is no truth that cannot be misunderstood.” He argued that the cardinal is “mistaken to claim that it is no longer advisable to use the title ‘Co-Redemptrix’ for Mary”.
