🇧🇾 Lukashenko: We’re brothers with Russia and Ukraine, from one baptismal font

— "On January 28, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said, addressing the Belarusian Parliament, that the West is pitting the Slavic peoples against each other. He also repeated that Ukraine should certainly return to the "fold of our Slavdom", reports RIA Novosti.

According to Lukashenko, Ukraine has become the object of behind-the-scenes trade-off.

"Ukrainians are pushed into the flames of conflict, their consciousness is broken, they are purposefully prepared for aggression. They are shaping a hostile attitude towards fraternal nations, including the Belarusians," he said in an address to the Parliament."

🇷🇺 Russian Orthodox Church Supports Tougher Punishment for Sexual Crimes Against Minors

— "The increased number of serious crimes against minors is a direct outcome of the overall deterioration of social moral standards, says priest Fyodor Lukyanov, head of the Patriarchal Commission for Family, Motherhood, and the Protection of Childhood.

He was speaking at a press conference, organized by the Commission on January 27, 2022, in connection with the case of Veronika Nikolayeva from Kostroma. Veronika Nikolayeva, 5 years old, was kidnapped in the street, raped, and murdered. Two suspects have been detained by the police, one of which has already served a sentence for a sexual offense against a minor.

Fr. Fyodor linked the tragedy to the overall deterioration of public morals. He maintained that this kind of crime is the extreme manifestation of something which is present in our everyday life."

🇷🇸 Patriarch Porfirije of Serbia: Enemies of Orthodoxy Try Hard to Split the Orthodox Church

— "In his interview with “Mezhdunarodnaya Zhizn” (International Affairs) magazine, His Holiness Patriarch Porphyry of Serbia spoke about possible ways to overcome the crisis caused by the decisions of Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople.

Referring to the church situation in Ukraine, His Holiness emphasized: “Our position remains unchanged. We have rendered and will continue to render the broadest support to Metropolitan Onufry and his Church.”

In the upheavals of the late 20th century, which led to the collapse of states, “enemies of Orthodoxy – and I would say: enemies of Christianity – saw an opportunity to split the autocephalous or autonomous Churches,” the Primate of the Serbian Orthodox Church observed."

🇦🇱🇺🇦 Primate of the Albanian Church – to the UOC: I am sure you will win

— "In an interview with the UOJ, Metropolitan Anthony of Boryspil and Brovary, Metropolitan of the UOC, spoke about a recent meeting with the Primate of the Albanian Orthodox Church, Archbishop Anastasios, one of the most prominent theologians in the field of missiology.

“At the end of our meeting, he said these words to me, 'Vladyka, I see how you (he meant our Church) are enduring these difficulties, with what hope in God, with peace in your soul, without aggression.' And then he added, 'I know the history a little. And I’m sure you will win',” Archbishop Anastasios was quoted by the UOC Chancellor.

These words, says Metropolitan Anthony, may sound like the leitmotif of what is happening in Ukraine now: the Church of Christ wins in humility, in patience. And this is Her strength."

🇨🇾 Cypriot Archbishop Chrysostomos announced over the weekend that he has suspended 12 priests from his diocese (but not the whole Cypriot Church) for not receiving the abortion-tainted COVID vaccine.

The needle-rape advocate (pictured left) is a controversial figure in Cyprus. He was implicated in a scandal back in 2019 when he assisted a Malaysian conman and money launderer named Jho Low in obtaining Cypriot citizenship. Low, in turn, donated €300,000 to Chrysostomos' bank account.

The archbishop also famously ordered the bulldozing of a row of historical homes in Nicosia's old town because they blocked the view of a cathedral project he had commissioned, angering many Cypriots. He could have built the cathedral elsewhere, but decided it would be a better idea to annoy the locals. A decade earlier, he branded them as "cry-babies".

Chrysostomos also supports the terrorist organisation in Ukraine called the OCU, which has a record of violently assaulting priests and women and vandalising Orthodox churches.
