Opening the cathedral on October 11, 1962, John XXIII declared that the purpose of the Council was to renew the Church and its rational reorganization so that the Church could demonstrate its understanding of the development of the world and become involved in this process. The Pope expressed his wish that the result of this Council would be an open Church to the world.

She became a conservative edition. In the middle of the 60, against the backdrop of the struggle of supporters and opponents of the left, the struggle in the sphere of the press escalated. At the end of 68, the Communist Party took measures to solve the problems of the party press, set up a press bureau. In 66, a national conference was held, where problems of the communist press were discussed. The press raises the issue of freedom of the press.
