Ukrainian autocephaly. After one year
All this past year the CEMES foundation worked on a scholarly project, which examined the Ukrainian crisis from a theological, historical and canonical perspective, always in relation to the triptych: Primacy-Conciliarity-Autocephaly.

Interference impossible to ignore, or what should the state do with religious policy?
All states of the world have in place a policy regarding religion and associations that citizens set up based on this religion's ground. The atheistic government of China and theocratic government of Iran, the mighty United States and tiny Andorra – just every one of them.

First Hierarchical Liturgy of Patriarchal Stauropegia to be held at St Andrew’s Church in Kyiv
On December 13, the First Hierarchical Liturgy will be held at St. Andrew's Church, the Patriarchal Stauropegia. The Liturgy will begin at 9:30. The liturgy will be presided over by exarchs of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
As RISU reported earlier, in October President Poroshenko made a submission to the Verkhovna Rada regarding the transfer of St. Andrew's Church in Kyiv for use of the representatives of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
On October 18, the MPs supported (237 votes in favor) this bill (No. 9208), and on November 7 the president signed it into law. In late November, the Cabinet of Ministers issued a statement of transfer of the premises of St. Andrew's Church to the use of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
It should be noted that St. Andrew's Church is part of St Sophia of Kyiv National Reserve. Before its transfer to the Ecumenical Patriarchate, representatives of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church served there.

Petro Poroshenko urges international community to support the independence of OCU
Единственное умное решение среди всего бреда с "автокефалией" и "собором" - передача Андреевской церкви. Теперь её хотя бы будет занимать каноническая церковь (константинопольская), а не лживо-фантастическая УАПЦ, которую даже Варфоломей не признал (при всём абсурде его прочих решений). Надо остальные здания "упц кп" и "уапц" разделить между всеми 14 Православными церквами мира, а так же УГКЦ и Римской церковью. Пусть эти капища превратятся в христианские храмы!
