The fact is that the MOC-AO is not in a canonical and eucharistic assembly with the<br>orthodox ecumene and in that sense it is in a way not a complete church. Recognition of its<br>autocephaly will essentially mean canonical and eucharistic entry into space orthodoxy and<br>representation in that assembly with and through the head of its first hierarch in honor and<br>dignity. Today, the real and factual orthodox ecumenical is divided into two parts primarily<br>and essentially as a result of the efforts of Fanar, who has a strong (geo) political support for<br>it, to impose its status within the space orthodoxy as eastern, as orthodox pope. In this way,<br>the ecumenical orthodox order of catholicity would be thoroughly destroyed. This means that<br>all autocephalous оrthodox local synods / churches have completely equal status and make<br>decisions in the assembly. In doing so, the bishop of Fanar is admitted in a certain way that he<br>has a church primacy in honor and dignity, and not in at all. Fanar seeks for himself a primacy<br>precisely in power and which will practically contain all the prerogatives and powers equal to<br>/ equivalent to the prerogatives and powers of the Roman bishop, ie the pope.</p>}, number={7}, journal={Proceedings of the International Scientific Conference "Social Changes in the Global World&quot;}, author={Sasajkovski, Slavko}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={713-728} }
