Journal Title: Вісник Львівського університету - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue
Abstract
As modern native religious studies scholars confirm, in the whole Ecumenical Orthodox Christianity the idea of “Russian space” is the most aggressive form of confessional influence on forming internal and external policy of those countries where Russian have their national minorities. It is especially felt in Ukraine, where during the last years illegal realization of basic postulates of “Russian space” has been started. It is important to mark that the realization of fundamental statements of the “Russian space” ideology on the Ukrainian space is implemented not only by political institutions, but also by secret services of Russian Federation in the close contact with the Moscow Patriarchate, i.e. outside of Ukraine as well as inside – with the support and help of pro-Russia political forces, separate representatives of state power and also average citizens – followers and supporters of the idea of USSR renovation. It is worth to add to this list the majority of authority and also the part of priesthood and believers of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate).
