🇲🇪 Why it's relevant that the Ecumenical Patriarch is meeting with Montenegrin officials... for some reason.
This isn't to suggest he will recognise the violent organisation which calls itself the "Montenegrin Orthodox Church (MOC)" anytime soon but at the same time we should watch with caution at any moves the EP makes to undermine the Serbian Patriarchate, which of course, is the Russian Orthodox Church's closest ally.

🇬🇷 Greek metropolitan: Synodals of Greek Orthodox Church betrayed Christ
— "The former Metropolitan Ambrosios of Kalavryta (Greek Orthodox Church) said that the bishops of the Greek Orthodox Church betrayed Christ, reports Romfea.
Metropolitan Ambrosios in an address to the Synod of the Greek Orthodox Church writes: “Have you, the high priests of the Church of Greece, unscrupulously abandoned your high mission and turned from representatives of Christ into representatives of Mitsotakis? That is, you have given up the privilege of being a type of Christ and ended up being a type of Mitsotakis?"
In his opinion, "the unconditional acceptance and faithful application of the measures of the Mitsotakis government, as a result of which the churches were closed and the parishioners disappeared, is a violation of Christ and a betrayal of our Orthodox faith".

🇬🇷 Greek hierarch to Synod: You forsake Communion for recommending vaccine
— "Former Metropolitan Ambrosios of Kalavryta of the Greek Orthodox Church said that the bishops of the GOC have forsaken the Communion of the Body and Blood of Christ and are promoting a vaccine for the coronavirus, reports Romfea.
Metropolitan Ambrosios, in an address to the Synod of the Greek Orthodox Church, asks whether the bishops' "persistent support for the imposition of the vaccine on the faithful is turning them into a tool of the devil?"
"You have abandoned efforts to vaccinate the faithful with the Vaccine called the Body and Blood of Christ, and with unprecedented persistence are engaged in promoting the Mitsotakis Vaccine!" the archbishop said."
