Protopresbyter Theodoros Zisis, Pofessor Emeritus at the theological school of the Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, believes that Patriarch Bartholomew is acting against Orthodoxy regarding the “Ukrainian issue,” reports the Romfea publication.

In an article by Protopresbyter Theodoros, published by the edition, it is said that after the collapse of the USSR, a “political and ecclesiastical demarcation” was achieved between Russia and Ukraine.

However, according to the professor, “cultural ties between the two nations, as well as ecclesiastical dependence on the Russian Church, still persisted, which, unfortunately, Patriarch Bartholomew is acting against, collaborating with the Western crusaders, who ruined Byzantium and desecrated Constantinople in 1204."

According to the Archpriest, Patriarch Bartholomew “is de facto acting against the Orthodox Church”, and “the goal of the heretical West, instigated by the devil all the time, is to dissolve the Orthodox Church, i.e. the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, and de-Christianize the Orthodox East in the way it had already de-Christianized itself."

Earlier, the UOJ wrote that, according to Archpriest Theodoros Zisis, the Tomos of the OCU is a crusade against the Russian Church.
