"Your name is inscribed in the history of Ukraine with gold letters along with the names of the rulers of Kievan Rus’, Kievan state, your predecessors – Holy Equal-to-the Apostles Great Prince Vladimir, Yaroslav the Wise, who did a lot for the spiritual prosperity of their people," Bishop Ilarion said.
The exarch compared the action of the Patriarchate of Constantinople with the sacrifice of Christ: “As a good shepherd, the Ecumenical Patriarchate left 99 sheep and led this one sheep to unity with this decision of October 11 - millions of Orthodox Christians, carrying out its Calvary self-sacrificial mission, which it continues to carry out contrary to its own interests…”
