Bishop Tychikos of Paphos refuses to accept the transfer of St. Paul's relics from the Vatican to Paphos, claiming that the Pope is heretical. This refusal has strained his relationship with Archbishop Georgios, who acknowledged the importance of the transfer. The Archbishop expressed that St. Paul's relics are significant for Paphos and that this disagreement hinders communication. Despite the conflict, he stated he would welcome the Pope if he visits Cyprus.
