Zore will be formally introduced to the media next Friday. The date of his consecration is not yet known. The Ljubljana Archdiocese was without an archbishop since the end of last July, when Pope Francis accepted the resignation of the then Archbishop Anton Stres and the then Archbishop of Maribor Marjan Turnšek.

The Ljubljana Archdiocese was in the meantime led by the Apostolic Administrator and Bishop of Novo Mesto Andrej Glavan.
