Cyril Hovorun, a Ukrainian Orthodox priest, talks about how the war with Russia is impacting the Ukrainian people. He explains the history and character of Eastern Orthodoxy and discusses the formation of an independent, or autocephalous, Ukrainian Orthodox Church, something vehemently opposed by the Russian Orthodox Church. Cyril also discusses his book Political Orthodoxies, and shares his thoughts about the temptations for Orthodoxy, but also the strengths, when encountering nationalism.
