Apostolic Exarchate of Serbia and Montenegro

Apostolic Exarchate of Serbia and Montenegro

Cited from Croatian Greek Catholic Church:

After the formation of independent republics from what had been Yugoslavia, a separate Apostolic Exarchate was created for the Byzantine Rite Greek Catholics in Serbia and Montenegro, the Apostolic Exarchate of Serbia and Montenegro. It was formed in 2002 and its first exarch Djura Džudžar (Дюра Джуджар) was appointed in 2003, with see in Ruski Krstur. This is still associated with the Eparchy of Križevci, unlike the separate Apostolic Exarchate that was formed in Macedonia in 2003 and that is classified in the Annuario Pontificio as a separate particular Church.
