Orthodox-Catholic and Greek Catholic Relations After the Ukrainian Crisis (original) (raw)

2021

Abstract

"An analysis of the history of the Orthodox treatment of the Greek Catholic communities, focusing on the situation in Ukraine. The most recent crisis erupted in the rejection of the Balamand Declaration by both the Ukrainian Greek Catholics and those Orthodox following the rigid stance of the Russian Orthodox Church. A description of the more favorable approach to Greek Catholicism from the Middle East, Greece, and America, and the new perspectives that appeared after the granting of autocephaly by the Ecumenical Patriarchate to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine. The paper will conclude with a personal recommendation as to how the most thorny issue in Orthodox-Catholic relations can become an optimistic case that can contribute to the quest for Christian unity."
