The church in modern countries is an influential social institution that builds its activities with the state based on mutual understanding and trust, taking into account the realization of its own interests. Interaction between religious organizations and the state takes place on a legal basis, taking into account the historical role of the church in the formation of the nation and civil society, which is a key factor in the construction of a modern society.
