The theme of church unity is urgent for all the Orthodox Christians, said Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Russia in his address to the Bishops’ Council of the Russian Orthodox Church, which is taking place in Moscow.

He stated the fact that the current relations between Orthodox Churches left much to be desired and noticed that ‘the unity of Churches is in danger when some politicians, guided by political, nationalistic and other motives, seek as much as to break the unshakeable norms of inter-church regulations’.

Patriarch Alexy reminded the Council that the wounds of the Church’s body inflicted in this way take a very long time and much effort to heal. ‘The Russian Orthodox Church does its best to maintain fraternal relations with all of the Orthodox Churches. And it is ready to solve all the problems in the spirit of Christian love.’
