Expert: Churches will reject schism-legalizing decision of Phanar on Tomos
Journalist and political expert Viacheslav Pikhovshek
Such a decision will be a precedent for the immediate legalization of any schismatic structure, said journalist and political expert Viacheslav Pikhovshek on the air of the program "Subjective Results".
"The World Orthodoxy will never accept such a decision of Constantinople on Ukrainian autocephaly which will become a precedent for the immediate legalization of any schismatic structure. So far there are enough of them all over the world," the journalist explained.
As reported by the UOJ, earlier Viacheslav Pikhovshek explained that the creation of the Local Church in Ukraine will allow the UGCC to meet its interests and the idea of autocephaly in Ukraine can play into the hands of Greek Catholics.
