Patriarch Theodore has considered His Beatitude Onuphry the only canonical Primate of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine
On November 8, 2019, during the Divine Liturgy in honor of the feast of the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael and other celestial forces ethereal, Patriarch Theodore II of Alexandria commemorated in the reading of the diptych Sergei Petrovich Dumenko as head of the OCU. This was reported by the Greek agency "Romfea" with reference to its sources in Egypt.
