Moscow, May 27, Interfax - The Russian Orthodox Church believes that Russia cannot be powerful and successful if its people don't realize supreme ideals and values and don't have will to stand up for them।"Neither oil nor weapons make nation great. If we don't have ideals and a supreme global goal, we will be deprived of oil and gas and all our weapons either won't be used due to the lack of political will or will be used against ourselves," the deputy chairman of the Moscow Patriarchate Department for External Church Relations Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin said on Tuesday at a conference in Moscow. He thinks that "ideological and volitional components of politics are central and define everything," and only having it realized, "Russia can achieve success."According to him, the minority won the October coup in 1917 because they had "a supreme aim and spared no effort to achieve it." Fr. Vsevolod noted that the society's majority also had the same goal "but, perhaps, they weren't taught to defend their choice.""Future Russia's victories also depend on whether there are supreme goals, supreme values and ability to achieve the goal leaving out minor every day priorities for the sake of our global mission," the Moscow Patriarchate's representative summed up.
