Vadym Novynskyi commented on the Decision of the Pan-Orthodox Council "On Autonomy and the Means of Proclaiming It"
The Pan-Orthodox Council, which was concluded on 24 June this year on Crete, adopted a decision "On Autonomy and the Means of Proclaiming It", among a number of important decisions regulating the life of the Church.

In fact, it has been recognized that a Church can gain autonomy, as well as autocephaly, only with the consent of the Principal Church (Mother Church). This provision has put an end to insinuations that were actively promoted by individual heresiarchs, and some narrow-minded politicians, and demagogues in Ukraine.

Ukrainian Orthodoxy is based on the fact that the Mother Church for Orthodox believers in Ukraine is the Russian Orthodox Church, with which the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) has coexisted in canonical unity for centuries.

Vadym Novynskyi Commented on Parliament's Address to Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople
Sometimes it is useless trying to bring a person to reason using words. They do not listen to the voice of common sense. They ignore logical arguments and persist in doing everything their own way.

Why did the Verkhovna Rada lay itself open to universal ridicule and adopt the Address to His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew? It has been repeatedly said that according to the canons of the Church, autocephaly can only be granted by the Mother Church, the principal church, which for the Ukrainian Orthodox Church is the Russian Orthodox Church.

The document adopted by the Parliament is not only null and void from a legal point of view (as it contravenes the applicable law and was signed by the speaker, A.Parubiy, contrary to the Regulations), but it is also disastrously illiterate from a historical, canonical and theological viewpoint.
