Russian liberal figured out how to avoid a split in world Orthodoxy
The Russian Orthodox Church should give Ukraine church autocephaly before the Patriarchate of Constantinople.
Liberal Russian political scientist Andrei Okara stated this on the Rossiya-1 TV channel, a Politnavigator correspondent reports.
“The Moscow Patriarchate now has a unique opportunity to take a step that will relieve tension. The dispute is about whose historically canonical jurisdiction is: the Ecumenical Patriarchate or the Moscow Patriarchate. If the Moscow Patriarchate suddenly grants a tomos to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, this will be the basis for ensuring that there is no schism,” Okara said.
He claims that there are “different moods” in the UOC-MP, and a significant part of the bishops allegedly want autocephaly.
