Hierarch of Phanar: ROC owes everything to Patriarchate of Constantinople

On October 10, 2022, the head of the Phanariot structure in America, Archbishop Elpidophoros, stated that the Russian Orthodox Church owes everything it has to Byzantium, according to the pro-fanariot website fosfanariou.gr.

At the end of the liturgy served in the New York Church of the Holy Trinity of the Phanar structure in the USA, Archbishop Elpidophoros wished health and strength to Patriarch Theodore in the fight "against our supposedly Russian brothers, who exploit the poverty of your priests and your flock, and with thirty pieces of silver of Judas come and buy the conscience of the poor priests of Africa and Orthodox believers."

The head of the Phanariot structure in the United States noted that “this Church of Russia, this Patriarchate, if it has light, if it has a culture, and if it has a history, then it owes all this to Byzantium, the Ecumenical Patriarchate, the Mother Church.”

Earlier, the UOJ wrote that, according to Archbishop Elpidophoros, the ROC betrays the unity of all of us.
