We can ascertain quite a disturbing period in the history of the Mukachevo Greek-Catholic diocese of the early 20's of the twentieth century, when secular authorities tried to interfere in the internal affairs of an entirely independent structure. Moreover, officials who stood on modernist positions, according to the documents of that time, directly discussed the possibility of interference in the Church (support of the Orthodox, preiudication towards Bishop Antony Pap, financial restrictions of the clergy, etc.), despite the fact that the Church is self-sufficient and guided by Rome only in administrative matters, and any outside interference is a gross attempt not to resolve affairs in dialogue, but the fight of secular government for the sake of its influence on the Church in Subcarpathian Rus to which belonged most of the believers. As a result, the state failed in its attempts to take control of the Church, but both sides came to a compromise on the issue of Mukachevo Bishop, and afterwards the relations improved, and in 1928 a agreement was concluded. After agreement new rules of relations between the Apostolic capital and Czechoslovak officials were established.
