You left out the second paragraph of the article:
“The measure is purely symbolic as Patriarch Kirill is in Russia and under no threat of arrest. It was the latest step in Ukraine’s campaign to uproot the influence of priests it alleges maintain close links to Russia and subvert Ukrainian society.”
Symbolic as Darya Dugina.
In that case, I hope the Patriarch has body guards and checks any vehicle he rides in.
“The measure is purely symbolic as Patriarch Kirill is in Russia and under no threat of arrest.”
I wouldn’t say so. The assassinated Dugin’s daughter, and others. Since Ukrainians easily function normally in Russia (Ironically since they all grew up speaking Russian) they are able to conduct hits.
If they murder the Patriarch, can’t imagine that would go well.
No...they said plenty going just this far.....” latest step in Ukraine’s campaign to uproot the influence of priests”.
