Pompeo became hysterical over US failure to destroy the Russian Orthodox world
American politicians have realized that they will not be able to break Russian positions in the international arena through military-political and financial-economic means, so the United States is beginning to put pressure on public institutions such as the Orthodox Church, but this is still to no avail.
Political scientist Rostislav Ishchenko announced this broadcast on the SPAS TV channel, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Thus, at the end of September, US Secretary of State Mark Pompeo, at a meeting with the Greek Prime Minister, said that it is necessary to overcome “the challenges that Russia creates through malicious influence, such as an attempt to take advantage of the Orthodox Church.” In addition, he said, “Russia is demonstrating bad behavior in North Macedonia.”
“That’s why Pompeo is suffering, because, I would say, this is not another or extraordinary statement, or even an attempt to interfere, because they are constantly trying to interfere,” Ishchenko commented. – I would say that this is a cry of despair, because Americans begin to tell you that you behave badly when something doesn’t work out for them.
That is, if they could not rebuild Russian society for themselves, or they could not rebuild the Russian Orthodox Church for themselves, then they say that Russia is behaving badly because Russia is using the Orthodox Church for its own political purposes.”
“Although, in general, the Russian Orthodox Church does not now extend beyond Russian territory. She is experiencing serious pressure, including that inspired by the Americans in their canonical territories, which simply fell, I think, temporarily fell outside the Russian borders.
That is, you understand that it is not the Russian Orthodox Church that is conducting such active preaching on American territory. And it was not the Russian Orthodox Church that organized BLM and other minorities’ performances in the United States,” the political scientist noted.
“It is the Americans who are actively using completely different, both confessional and non-confessional mechanisms to put pressure on Russian society. Precisely because at one time, I think 10-15 years ago, American politicians realized that they would not be able to break Russian positions in the international arena through military-political and financial-economic means. And they won’t even be able to stop the restoration and strengthening of Russia, which means that the only method that has been proven for thousands of years remains is to influence society so that the state explodes from the inside, as it exploded in our country in 17.
Since the church is one of the most serious and largest social institutions, then, accordingly, pressure on the church, an attempt to put it at one’s service, is also constantly present in American politics.
If this doesn’t work out, then it causes an appropriate reaction, and Americans, they are simple people, they sing what they see,” added Rostislav Ishchenko.
