Slovenia Still without Archbishops a Year after Resignations

Ljubljana, 31 July - Exactly a year has passed since the archbishops of Ljubljana and Maribor resigned over the financial scandal at the Maribor Archdiocese, and their replacements are yet to be appointed. The retired archbishops Anton Stres and Marjan Turnšek have meanwhile returned to their work in the Catholic Church after a year-long exile.
