The Russian Orthodox church is NOT the primary Orthodox church in Russia.

It is the Ukrainian Orthodox church which is canonical with the Russian and other worldwide Orthodox churches, and sprung from the ROC.
This is why.

“..crackdown on the UOC follows a series of raids by the Security Service of Ukraine. The intelligence agency has said it has found evidence of UOC priests possessing Russian citizenship, contacting Russian intelligence agents and owning literature denying the right of Ukraine to exist. One of these raids was triggered by a video filmed in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra cathedral, the seat of the UOC and one of the holiest Orthodox shrines, in which the faithful sang a hymn celebrating Russia’s “awakening.”

You know Nothing about the Orthodox church.

I know a lot more than you do, obviously.
