Moscow, April 26, Interfax - Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Russia believes that no external force can destroy the spiritual unity between the Ukrainian and Russian peoples.The celebration of the 1020th anniversary of the Baptism of Russia is "a good reason to recall that our peoples had a common baptismal font and a common historical fate," Alexy said in an interview published in the Saturday issue of Rossiiskaya Gazeta."This spiritual unity should be valued. It is a valuable legacy to our peoples, and it lives in people's hearts. As the record shows, even the most powerful external force is powerless in such cases. It stands to reason when people say that the heart knows no laws," he said."There were times when attempts were made to declare our fathers' faith a survival of times past," he said."But nothing of the sort worked. It is just impossible to efface faith from people's souls. The same concerns the roots of the united Holy Rus. It is undefeatable," he said.Source:
