Sorry, if we wanted a pope we could just go to Rome and get the real thing. Pretty much the entire of the Orthodox Church is refusing to recognize Bart’s papal pretensions. The Russian Church has some issues, but none of that can justify abandoning canon law and provoking schism. Do you also favor Catholic bishops severing ties with the Red Pope?
Beyond which this article is a specie of propaganda aimed at the politically and historically illiterate. Russia and Ukraine have been one nation for almost a thousand years. Before 1918 there was never any such thing as an independent Ukraine. The Revolution was nothing more or less than the violent overthrow of a democratically elected government orchestrated by the CIA and other western intelligence services.
