The Patriarchate of Antioch frequently remained in communion with both Rome and Constantinople after the schism of 1054 until the formation of the Melkite Catholic Church in 1724.

The Melkites still assert patriarchal authority against the papacy today despite their union with Rome.

“The Melkites still assert patriarchal authority against the papacy today despite their union with Rome.”

How do they work disputes out with this arrangement?
