This was stated by the head of the schismatic so-called “Kyiv Patriarchate” Filaret (Mikhail Denisenko) at the opening of the exhibition “Dear Faith” in the Ukrainian House.
The exhibition of portraits of princes and princesses from the times of Kievan Rus is the center of the exhibition “Dear Faith”.
“Moscow’s place is not the first, but a secondary one. You can see what place Moscow occupies in this history. Yuri Dolgoruky is one of many here, and is not the center. Russia wants to place itself at the center of the “Russian World”. The exhibition is designed to refute this lie,” Filaret said.
When asked how Filaret felt about the fact that among the portraits of church figures of the past and those who have already been canonized, his portrait also hangs at the exhibition, he replied: “I have been heading the Kyiv department for 50 years. Of all the metropolitans of Kyiv, no one has headed the department for how many years.”
Let us remind you that the family tree of the family of Prince Vladimir the Great was presented in Kyiv at the Ukrainian House.
