Is he calling the USA Godless? Or is it the EU he speaks of?

[Pyro7480]

I think he's directing that comment more at the EU, but the U.S., at least in the blue states, isn't far behind.

I believe Western Europe. In the circles I run in "nihlism" is code for Western Europe.

The papacy has already stated its antipathy towards American Representative Democracy in Piux IX's Syllabus of Errors (see http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius09/p9syll.htm)
In particular, look at #55 which says that separation of Church and State is an "Error"... Also take a look at section X. Errors with respect to Modern Liberalism
America, from its beginnings with the Declaration of Independence is an "Error"... see #63 "It is lawful to refuse obedience to legitimate princes, and even to rebel against them. "
Any pronouncement "from the Vatican" must be interpreted in the context of this world-view.

Is he calling the USA Godless?

Is a nation which legally protects the slaughter of the unborn, and commits such slaughter more than 4000 times each day Godly?

Yes.
