The UOJ opened its branch in the USA
On March 19, 2025, the European organization "Union of Orthodox Journalists" opened its branch in the United States of America. The UOJ website also began operating in this country.
American correspondents will cover the life of Orthodox communities in the USA in a variety of jurisdictions. Analytical materials, articles, interviews will promptly and objectively tell about all important events of the local Orthodox community.
For the first time, the Union of Orthodox Journalists has crossed the ocean and opened a branch on another continent. The opening of the American branch following the German, Greek, Albanian and Serbian branches is part of our strategy to support canonical Orthodoxy on an international scale and to unite Orthodox believers from different countries. The Union of Orthodox Journalists is a unique media project aimed at uniting Orthodox believers around the world and protecting traditional Christian values.
On November 21, 2024, the UOJ registered a new legal entity in Europe and also opened branches in Greece and Germany, Albania and Serbia. The opening of branches in other countries is next in line.
