I’m glad we are in agreement on this. The entire summit was a disgrace. Thank God that it appears that the European leaders have had some influence on Trump. At least he’s not demanding that Ukraine give up territory to Russia.

The priest (bishop?) was in a difficult position. Was he to refuse to meet the head of Russia and accept the icons of the founder of Orthodoxy in North America and of the Dormition of the Virgin on that feast day? It is Trump who is to blame for the entire situation.

That is untrue. There is antisemitism within some congregations of Orthodox, as there is in other denominations, but it is not dogma and is denounced. In WW2, Orthodox clergy in Nazi-occupied countries denounced the persecution of the Jews and called upon their congregations to help them.
