I think it is fascinating that Constantinople and the OCU have warmer relations with the UGCC than the UOC has with any of those three churches.

Yes, Yes, I know that I am beginning to sound like a broken record but "thank you". I understand this story because of some of your earlier reporting. Great work. I just wish that the whole world would read The Pillar. It helps so much to be informed.

well...if the Ukranian orthodox people want to come to the Catholic church, it sure would be nice to have them!

Thanks for the great story!

Some nits: this story dates the Constantinople recognition of the OCU to 2018, but another Pillar story has 2019; which is it? Also, the "Neither archbishop ..." sentence needs copy-editing.

Kyrll is simp!y the"altar boy" of Putin.

Before the restoration of the Moscow Patriarchate, the Metropolitan of Moscow was the Czar's lackey and after communism some Russian hierarchy were KGB.

Kyrll clearly loves the "Rodina" (the "Motherland") more than the Church of God.

Sounds like a reprobate to me
