Pope to receive Czech President Vaclav Klaus on May 30

Pope Benedict XVI will receive Czech President Vaclav Klaus in the Vatican on May 30.

"The meeting itself is unique as the Pope only receives for private conversations heads of state, which means his opposite numbers he invites to the meetings," Jindrich Forejt, director of the Presidential Office Protocol Department, told the server.

"Other political representatives from a country in question only meet the Pope within the general audience that is open to all pilgrims who come to the Vatican, mostly on Wednesday," Forejt said.

The talks will focus on Pope's visit to the Czech Republic. He is likely to come on September 26-28.

Vatican representatives visited the Czech Republic in the past days over the visit. Official webpage www.navstevapapeze.cz has been launched for the occasion.
