The Primate of the Church is neither a politician nor an official. It is a calling, bestowed from above.
One can lose a passport, but cannot take away the strength to stand in truth. "He who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me" (Mt. 10:38)
Earthly citizenship can be taken away. But heavenly citizenship — never.

The fact that Zaluzhnyi has finally been allowed to speak about the events of past days, I regard as a positive sign.

And this is only a small fraction of what could now be said about the global military miscalculations of the ruling team.
