He was elevated to the rank of cardinal in 1979, and was the longest-serving cardinal never to attend a papal conclave. He served as papal representative in delicate situations.

Others were geopolitical, attempting to prevent international violence, arranging an exchange of prisoners, or bearing witness to the Rwandan genocide against the Tutsis.
