Development of diplomatic relations amongst the Czech Republic and the Vatican

This reciprocal relation amongst state and church is not estabilished amongst two states, but also amogst state and international organisation, which is represented by the Pope, the head of the Church and of the Holy See. From the point of view of the mutual agreement every partner enters in this agreement with own demands and needs, which in the case of the papal diplomacy, these demands aren´t always in consensus with the diplomacy of the state. The Czech republic and the Holy See are democracies and such deal with problems in the diplomatic way, even though the consensus is not always possible.
