On December 15, ex-President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko spoke with Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople by phone.
The head of Phanar congratulated Poroshenko on the third anniversary of the so-called "unification council" of the schismatics. At the same time, he praised the businessman and politician for the creation and further approval of the OCU.
“It was you who emboldened this,” the patriarch is quoted by Poroshenko-owned Priamy channel.
In response, Petro Poroshenko thanked him for the Tomos for the OCU, after which they discussed further steps to support the OCU. Also, the Patriarch of Constantinople invited the ex-head of Ukraine to visit Phanar, but already next year.
As reported by the UOJ, in June Poroshenko met with Patriarch Bartholomew at Phanar, where they "recalled how the Orthodox Church of Ukraine appeared thanks to their joint efforts."
