The recently added information about all the electors of the patriarch being NKGB agents are related to 1945 Pskov Church Congress that elected Patriarch Alexy I of Moscow not Kirill. I have moved the material accordingly.
While the material is interesting I do not think it belongs to a such high level article as Russian Orthodox Church. We do not have an article about Pskov Congress, maybe we should move it to Patriarch Alexy I of Moscow - it was his elections after all? Or maybe Persecution of Christians in the Soviet Union?

Recently, a new interesting article was published, which claims that the current patriarch of the Moscow Patriarchate was a KGB agent in Switzerland. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/kirill-the-patriarch-in-league-with-putin/ Bodia1406 ( talk) 22:36, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
Kiev was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Patriarchate of Moscow with an authorization letter, stating that the Metropolitan of Kiev should commemorate the Patriarch of Constantinople and second the Patriarch of Moscow. This resembles the situation in Northern Greece, where 35 dioceses were provisionally transferred to the Church of Greece, while their Metropolitan must commemorate first the Patriarch of Constantinople and then the Holy Synod of the Church of Greece. This indicates that as with the dioceses in Northern Greece, the Patriarchs of Constantinople considered Kiev to be their own territory, whose administration they transferred to the Patriarch of Moscow, while at the same time they preserved their supreme canonical prerogative of being commemorated by the Metropolitan as his own ecclesiastical authority. This wording of the authorization letter became the occasion for the Holy Synod of the Patriarchate of Constantinople in 2018 to issue a decision of revoking the authorization and returning the Kievan territory to its own jurisdiction.

I believe that the Russian Orthodox Church is now in schism with wider Orthodox Church in communion with the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. In 2018, the Patriarch of Constantinople recognized the Ukrainian Orthodox church as autocephalous. The Patriarch of Moscow responded by breading communion. Would this result in the Russian Orthodox church becoming a separate denomination? Or would that be premature? At any rate the article should probably say more about this.

I have family in the United States who are convinced that The Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine is currently being bombed and its people destroyed by fascist agents of the Ukrainian army or police forces. Their only source for this is the website https://orthochristian.com/. Without getting into any more detail, I just want to know if there is any substance to these claims or if any if this footage is legitimate or otherwise. The alleged atrocities are current.

Moscovian Patriarchate has no legitimate right to Ukrainian territory. The Moscow Patriarchate was formed by schism. In the article on Wikipedia, unfortunately, propaganda is presented about the inheritance of the Kyiv Metropolis in 988, but this is not correct, because the Kyiv Metropolis now exists in Ukraine, and it is logical that it should to be considered an heiress. According to Ukrainian documents, the Moscow Patriarchate was created by the Khan of the Golden Horde and placed closer to the center of the Golden Horde in order to control the church.

The jpeg above contains a false or misleading caption "We do not want to fight with anyone. Russia has never attacked anyone. It is surprising that a large and powerful country has never attacked anyone, it has only defended its borders." I have to assume he is talking since Russia became the Russian Federation or he has forgotten a lot of history, such as Finland, Afghanistan etc. I cannot find how to add a cite tag or edit it to anything near truth, help. 2404:4408:638C:5E00:1DA:564B:B731:2480 ( talk) 15:38, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
There should be some route from this article to the following topics, which could also be called "Russian Orthodox Church":
A new disambiguation page with hatnote is an option, but I see there is already a list of churches at Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia#Notable churches. Clearly, each of the three buildings/congregations above is a Russian Orthodox Church outside of Russia (small o), but is it also a Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (capital O) or is it independent of ROCOR, perhaps via some other self-governing branch?
