This week on the Sunday Show, we discuss the latest from Istanbul, where a meeting of the Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarch, the highest authority in the Orthodox Church, confirmed the long-awaited news that Ukraine will receive autocephaly. Now that the Ukrainian Orthodox Church is one step closer to independence, we look at what this means for Ukraine with professor at Loyola Marymount University Archimandrite Cyril Hovorun.
We also discuss Russia’s future in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council Europe (PACE), which voted to postpone talks on the country’s reinstatement this week. Russia was stripped of its PACE voting rights in 2014, following the illegal annexation of Crimea and its involvement in the war in Donbas, but has long since lobbied for the sanctions against it to be removed. We sit down with Hromadske journalist Volodymyr Yermolenko to find out what’s next for Russia
