meal on the table, everything is made only with vegetable oil, here are beans, sauerkraut. sprouted wheat is a symbol of the beginning of a new life. even on badniydan, that is, on christmas eve, food is still lenten, for christmas. almost everything is ready for dinner, the hostess is baking special bread, honesty, where she hides the coin, but the main dish of the christmas table is already waiting in the wings, the divine liver, liver, that is , roast pork, although it sounds similar to our cookies, has little to do with baking in general, historically the serbs cooked lamb for christmas, but 500 years under the ottoman yoke made their own adjustments to the customs, perhaps... ours preserved our orthodoxy, so our ancestors shed a lot of blood and sweat to justify their work. at christmas we we light a candle as a symbol of light, which

should be passed on from generation to generation. therefore, i want our orthodox brothers to also adhere to our common values, this is orthodoxy, family and fatherland. christmas traditions. observed throughout serbia, for example, president aleksandar vucic solemnly brings the illuminated badnik into the building of his residence. the center of celebrations in belgrade is the church of st. sava. a large bonfire is lit near the temple, or rather the badnedansku vatra. the culmination of christmas eve, the burning of badnik. today there are such bonfires around everyone temple of serbia. according to custom, the more sparks that fly into the air, the happier the year will be. to ensure that there are certainly enough sparks, and with them well-being and prosperity for everyone, many believers celebrate the onset of christmas with fireworks. daria grigorova and vladislav chernov, balkan bureau news from belgrade. on the feast of the nativity of christ, patriarch kirill and the head of the ministry of health, mikhail murashko visited

this time we will find out how kiev was taken away from moscow and how it got it in the first place? international religious raider takeover or time to change history, let's go to maidan 2008. now with great pride, respect, i want to introduce you to metropolitan kirill, who flew in from moscow. today the mother of russian cities arrived in kyiv patriarch alexy the most holy, in order to

celebrate the 102nd anniversary of her baptism together with all the ukrainian people, with all the people of holy russia. it was a risky trip , but after weighing everything, i decided that i had to go, because otherwise the results would have been different, no, if i had not gone, then the patriarch of constantinople would have been in charge.

it was supposed to use the date of the 102nd anniversary of the baptism of russia, president yushchenko decided to use exactly this round number 10-20 in order to try, well, somehow in order to tear the ukrainian orthodox church away from moscow, celebrations were planned in kiev, timed to coincide with the anniversary, for these celebrations. were invited by the heads of all local orthodox churches, the plan was that in the presence of these heads,

patriarch bartholomew of constantinople would suddenly recognize filoret and create some kind of structure for him, the rest would simply confirm all this by the fact of their presence. this was the plan agreed upon in constantinople with then president yushchenko. well, we managed to destroy this plan. ecumenical patriarch bartholomew the first arrived in ukraine. in the entire history of the kiev church, and 1020 years after the baptism, the ecumenical patriarch has never visited kiev. president yushchenko said about bartholomew’s visit: “this is a sign of god’s blessing. having lost or, after all, lost such political support in the country, he...” imagined himself to be some kind of equally-ranked prince vladimir, who must unite the completely incompatible, well, how can

one unite all into a single national church and schismatics and uh canonical church and autocephalist schismatics and greek catholics all into one national church. the authorities of ukraine always. they wanted, like the authorities of any state, that the church be united, because the church is a factor of stability, faith and religion are a factor of stability in the state, it is clearly necessary to understand that in order for the two orthodox churches that exist, there are three of them here, that they do not quarrel with each other and do not set up civil society for confrontation, this is understandable, in my opinion, even a hedgehog, because everyone should - living at home in the house, to restore order , to make sure that there is, at least not unanimity, then no quarrels and fights, unfortunately,

there were such quarrels and fights in religious terms in the nineties, so each of the presidents tried to bring this the question of religious independence, and to its logical conclusion, under kuchma there were commissions. who went to the lantern, that is , constantinople, starting from the year ninety-five, was already interested in this topic, i felt comfortable, maybe i felt the first moment i arrived, because immediately i they said that you should immediately go to the president’s palace, he is waiting for you, but i said that i came in connection with the anniversary, and my first visit will be to the kiev-pechersk shrine.

blessed is our god, always and ever, and forever and ever, the people could not be deceived, the main believers, the believers who testified that it was not very good may be pleasing to the authorities holding it, because alexy, our patriarch, approved this

unity. which they are implementing by all means, is to bring ukraine into nato and divide, break that spiritual connection that exists between the entire russian orthodox church. a very

important meeting took place with patriarch alexei bartholomew. which ensured another 10 years of more or less peace, and then even outlined some contours of cooperation between the two patriarchates. yes, negotiations took place with me in the kiev metropolis at the residence of metropolitan vladimir in the kiev pechersk lavra, negotiations in a very harsh tone, between patriarch alexei and patriarch bartholomew.

well, of course, it was worth a lot of worry and health to patriarch alexy, who died at the end of the same year. well, when before kiev the doctors also categorically objected to the trip, because there were some. that’s why they even met with members because she had a complication in the heart area, the synod, with the presidents, said that it was dangerous. in this cathedral, which people simply call ilokha, ilokhovsky, he was enthroned, became patriarch of moscow and all russia alexy ii in the nineties. here he was buried, and here, on the day of his enthronement, he performs it every year.
