\tOpen appeal by\u00a0alumni, students, graduate students, and staff of St. Petersburg State University\u00a0against Russia\u2019s military actions in Ukraine\u00a0\u2014\u00a0more than 2,500\u00a0people\u00a0<\/p>\n

Military aggression contradicts the culture and the\u00a0values of Russian citizens, who have learned from the bitter experience of the Great Patriotic War [World War II], and the legacy of\u00a0Russian artistic culture, which is anti-war in its very nature<\/em><\/p>\n

\tDeclaration of\u00a0Orthodox hierarchs and scholars of Orthodoxy\u00a0condemning the\u00a0concept of\u00a0\u2018Russian peace\u2019 and its use to justify the war in Ukraine\u00a0\u2014 more than 500\u00a0people, including several Russians, including Archimandrite Kirill\u00a0and\u00a0former editor-in-chief of the Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate Sergey Chapnin<\/p>\n

\u2026we reject the heresy of the \u2018Russian world\u2019 and the shameful actions of the Russian government, which has unleashed a war against Ukraine. This war relies on a vile and\u00a0indefensible doctrine condoned by the Russian Orthodox Church. We reject it as\u00a0profoundly un-Orthodox, un-Christian, and hostile to humanity <...>. Just as Russia has\u00a0invaded Ukraine, so the Moscow Patriarchate of Patriarch Kirill has invaded the\u00a0Orthodox Church (as, for example, has happened in Africa), causing division and strife that not only results in uncountable deaths, but also endangers the souls of people, the\u00a0salvation of the faithful<\/em><\/p>\n
