"On behalf of the Ministry of Culture, we make a promise, and I make it publicly here, that we will be the ones who will initiate, so that as soon as possible, Christ the King will be enthroned and become the King of Slovakia,” Štefan Kuffa, the new state secretary of the culture ministry in Slovakia, said.

Poland went through the process of enthroning Jesus Christ in 2016 after a parliament vote. The ceremony, while symbolic and without legal repercussions, was attended by President Andrzej Duda and several MPs.

„After the people saw the miraculous sign that Jesus did, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.” Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself“ (John 6:14-15).
