In short, Chal28 assigns to Constantinople the pastoral care of all the local churches outside the borders of the Roman state, i.e. outside the limits of any specific ecclesiastical jurisdiction, which become exclusive canonical territory of New Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The canons of Chalcedon were \u201c<em>sealed<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn42\">[42]<\/a> by canon 2 of the Council in Trullo,<a href=\"#_ftn43\">[43]<\/a> and Chal28 was specifically ratified by Trullo36, which canonically confirmed the system of the Pentarchy of the Patriarchs.<a href=\"#_ftn44\">[44]<\/a> The essence of this system, which was gradually developed as a reaction to the claims of Papal Supremacy, lies in the fact that all the four divisions of the civilized world were divided among the five Patriarchates, making the whole <em>ecumene<\/em> a place of Eucharistic gatherings:<a href=\"#_ftn45\">[45]<\/a> Rome and Constantinople are ranked equal as far as the privileges of their thrones are concerned,<a href=\"#_ftn46\">[46]<\/a> but Rome, as the old capital of the Empire, retains the first position, followed by Constantinople in the second position, as the new capital, followed by Alexandria in the third position, because of the importance of the city, followed by Antioch in the fourth position and by Jerusalem in the fifth position.<a href=\"#_ftn47\">[47]<\/a> This ranking of the Patriarchates does not imply any subordination of Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem to Rome and Constantinople. The suprametropolitan jurisdiction of each of the five thrones is retained and any external intervention is prohibited.<a href=\"#_ftn48\">[48]<\/a> The ranking simply is a manifestation of the exalted role that the Elder and the New Rome played in Christendom, even among the most preeminent Patriarchal thrones, in matters of ecclesiastical administration.<a href=\"#_ftn49\">[49]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The final jurisdictional determination between Rome and Constantinople took place at the Synod of Hagia Sophia,<a href=\"#_ftn50\">[50]<\/a> which in its canon 1 prescribed the mutual respect and precluded any legal action against the decisions of the Pope and the Ecumenical Patriarch,<a href=\"#_ftn51\">[51]<\/a> recognizing, thus, officially the full administrative and judicial autonomy of the West and the East.<a href=\"#_ftn52\">[52]<\/a> The rupture of communion between Western and Eastern Christendom and the exclusion of Rome from the Pentarchy did not damage the canonical existence and function of the system, which continued to exist with the remaining Patriarchs of the East, since, even though the five thrones were numbered, in no case they were divided.<a href=\"#_ftn53\">[53]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To these four Patriarchates, as well as to the self-governing ancient Church of Cyprus, were added the newer local Orthodox Churches. All these newer Churches were once canonical territory of the EP, which granted autocephalous status to them through a Patriarchal and Synodal <em>Tomos<\/em>, i.e. an act issued by the Ecumenical Patriarch and the Holy and Sacred Synod of the EP, which contains the conditions that were fulfilled for the granting of the autocephaly and defines the territorial jurisdiction and limits of these Churches, which normally coincide with the borders of a particular state.<a href=\"#_ftn54\">[54]<\/a> At a later stage, the EP granted the Patriarchal honor to some of these new autocephalous Churches. Nevertheless, the convocation of a future Ecumenical or HGC is still required for the final ratification and blessing of the autocephalous status of these Churches.<a href=\"#_ftn55\">[55]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The adjective autocephalous (<em>\u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03bf\u03ba\u03ad\u03c6\u03b1\u03bb\u03bf\u03c2<\/em>) is a composite word formed by the noun <em>\u03ba\u03b5\u03c6\u03b1\u03bb\u03ae<\/em> (\u201chead\u201d) and the adjective <em>\u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03cc\u03c2<\/em> (\u201citself\u201d) and it literally means \u201c<em>having its own head<\/em>\u201d or \u201c<em>self-directing<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn56\">[56]<\/a> The status of autocephaly is the fullest form of administrative independence and self-action given to an ecclesiastical region that was part of an already existing autocephalous Church.<a href=\"#_ftn57\">[57]<\/a> The new autocephalous Church\u2014the synod of bishops of that particular territory\u2014exercises the canonical rights of the externally independent determination, election, ordination and judgment of its primate, and of administration of its internal affairs,<a href=\"#_ftn58\">[58]<\/a> without the approval of any higher ecclesiastical authority.<a href=\"#_ftn59\">[59]<\/a> It also freely handles its relations with the authorities of the state where it exists and with the other Orthodox autocephalous Churches, remaining though in full ecclesiastical communion with the latter, confessing the same faith and following the same sacramental life and canonical tradition with them. In short, the system of the autocephalous churches contains within it a paradoxical antinomy, since these churches are free and independent, but in no case self-planted and self-existing.<a href=\"#_ftn60\">[60]<\/a>&nbsp; Today fifteen local autocephalous Churches exist: the four ancient Patriarchates (Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, Jerusalem), the five newer Patriarchates (Russia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Georgia), and six other autocephalous Churches (Cyprus, Greece, Poland, Czech Lands and Slovakia, Ukraine).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>II.

A <em>second<\/em> difference between autonomy and autocephaly has to do with the way of the election and the position of the primate: in the case of an autonomous church, the election of its primate is approved or executed by the appropriate ecclesiastical organ of the autocephalous church,<a href=\"#_ftn65\">[65]<\/a> he commemorates during the Divine Liturgy only the primate of the autocephalous church to which his church belongs<a href=\"#_ftn66\">[66]<\/a> and his name does not enter the <em>Diptychs <\/em>of the Orthodox Church;<a href=\"#_ftn67\">[67]<\/a> in the case of an autocephalous church, as I have already mentioned, the primate is elected by the appropriate ecclesiastical organ of that church without any external interference, his name enters the <em>Diptychs<\/em>, and during the Divine Liturgy he commemorates only his brother primates of the other autocephalous churches. A <em>third<\/em> difference between autonomy and autocephaly is related to the fact that the <em>Tomos<\/em> of autonomy is granted by the holy synod of the mother church<a href=\"#_ftn68\">[68]<\/a> and not by the EP, as the <em>Tomos<\/em> of autocephaly. A <em>fourth<\/em> and last difference between the two ecclesiastical status has to do with the obligation of an autonomous Church to realize its inter-Orthodox, inter-Christian and inter-religious relations through its mother church,<a href=\"#_ftn69\">[69]<\/a> unlike to an autocephalous church, which freely and without any intervention exercises its external relations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The document of the HGC on <em>Autonomy<\/em> introduces a geographical exception to the areas where the status of autonomy may be granted: an autonomous church cannot be established \u201c<em>in the region of the Orthodox Diaspora, except by pan-Orthodox consensus, upheld by the Ecumenical Patriarch in accordance with prevailing pan-Orthodox practice<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn70\">[70]<\/a> In this provision, the phrase \u201c<em>region of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>\u201d is introduced, but without any definition. The definition of this phrase is given to another document that was also adopted by the HGC: <em>The Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>. According to this latter document as \u201c<em>regions of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>\u201d are defined \u201c<em>i. Canada, ii. United States of America, iii. Latin America, iv.

This is the consequence of a serious distortion of the territorial principle by some of the local autocephalous churches, which have replaced territoriality with ethnicity, claiming, thus, jurisdiction not only within their canonical boundaries, as defined in their <em>Tomos<\/em> of autocephaly, but upon every individual of the same ethnic origin.<a href=\"#_ftn77\">[77]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, according to the <em>Statute<\/em> of the Church of Russia, its jurisdiction extends \u201c<em>to persons of Orthodox confession living in the canonical territory of the Russian Orthodox Church<\/em>\u201d (territorial principle), as well as \u201c<em>to the Orthodox Christians living in other countries and voluntarily joining this jurisdiction<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn78\">[78]<\/a> (ethnic principle), expressing a mentality of colonialism.<a href=\"#_ftn79\">[79]<\/a> Such references to \u201c<em>other countries<\/em>\u201d beyond the jurisdiction of the Church of Russia fail to acknowledge the existence of other canonically established local autocephalous churches and see only diaspora outside the canonical territory of the Patriarchate of Moscow, creating, thus, a universal jurisdiction<a href=\"#_ftn80\">[80]<\/a> of an ethnic nature. For this reason, the Patriarchate of Moscow chooses to call itself \u201c<em>Russian Orthodox Church<\/em>\u201d instead of \u201c<em>Orthodox Church of Russia<\/em>.\u201d This replacement of the local designation \u201c<em>of Russia<\/em>\u201d with the adjectival designation \u201c<em>Russian<\/em>\u201d is not superficial, but it reveals the transition from territorial to ethnic ecclesiology.<a href=\"#_ftn81\">[81]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Pauline ecclesiology does not employ an ethnic criterion for the characterization of an ecclesial body. For the \u201c<em>Apostle to the Nations<\/em>\u201d a Church is always in a given place, a locally established Church;<a href=\"#_ftn82\">[82]<\/a> never a Church preceded by a qualitative adjective.<a href=\"#_ftn83\">[83]<\/a> Paul always refers to the one and only Church, the Body of Christ, incarnated in different locations,<a href=\"#_ftn84\">[84]<\/a> and not to different Churches, as the adjectival designations signify.<a href=\"#_ftn85\">[85]<\/a> It is not an exaggeration to argue that with ethnic ecclesiology the whole New Testament would have to be rewritten.<a href=\"#_ftn86\">[86]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Orthodox Church was cognizant of this reality and as soon as this ethnic ecclesiology started emerging during the nineteenth century, at the time of the dominion of the concepts of the ethnic state and church, a Pan-Orthodox Council in Constantinople<a href=\"#_ftn87\">[87]<\/a> condemned ecclesiological ethno-phyletism as heresy.<a href=\"#_ftn88\">[88]<\/a> Nevertheless, during the twentieth century, with the growing tides of Orthodox Christian immigration from the Balkans, the Middle East and Eastern Europe to America, Australia and Western Europe, \u201c<em>the regions of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>\u201d were explicitly organized on the basis of the heretically condemned ethnic ecclesiology and its analogous ecclesiology of the diaspora. The concept of the diaspora<a href=\"#_ftn89\">[89]<\/a> is inconceivable in Christianity, where, in accordance with the territorial principle, the whole earth is covered by local churches, which by definition cannot have diaspora, since their jurisdiction is limited only within their canonical borders.<a href=\"#_ftn90\">[90]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the territories beyond the canonical borders of a local church were truly \u201c<em>regions of diaspora<\/em>,\u201d Chalcedon would have no reason to adopt Chal28. This canon ecclesiologically excludes any possibility of diaspora, since all the Orthodox Christians living in regions outside the borders of their autocephalous church, become <em>ipso facto<\/em> members of the local church in those regions, whose pastoral care is exclusively assigned to the EP. Therefore, all those local autocephalous Orthodox Churches which claim jurisdiction not only over those persons within their canonical territory, but also over those persons of the same ethnic origin who live \u201c<em>in the regions of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>,\u201d uncanonically encroach upon the jurisdiction of EP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the early 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, around the time that the ethnic ecclesiology of the diaspora reached its peak, the jurisdiction of the EP over the <em>\u1f10\u03bd<\/em><em> <\/em><em>\u03c4\u03bf\u1fd6\u03c2<\/em><em> <\/em><em>\u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u1fd6\u03c2<\/em> was questioned by some canonists, who treated the abovementioned interpretation of Chal28 as a \u201c<em>novel theor[y] of obligatory and exceptional subordination to the Constantinopolitan Church of the entire Orthodox \u2018diaspora,\u2019<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn91\">[91]<\/a> which was introduced in 1922 by the then Ecumenical Patriarch Meletios IV (Metaxakis) and was later followed by his successors to the Constantinopolitan throne.<a href=\"#_ftn92\">[92]<\/a> Nevertheless, this argument is challenged by the long and steady ecclesiastical practice throughout the centuries.<a href=\"#_ftn93\">[93]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As three representative examples of this practice could be mentioned: (a) by the twelfth century, the regions of Russia and Alania<a href=\"#_ftn94\">[94]<\/a> where under the jurisdiction of the EP, which elected and ordained their bishops, as the twelfth century Byzantine canonists testify;<a href=\"#_ftn95\">[95]<\/a> (b) in the mid-fifteenth century, a year before the fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans, the EP responds<a href=\"#_ftn96\">[96]<\/a> with \u201c<em>maternal care<\/em>,\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn97\">[97]<\/a> cognizant of its canonical duty, to the pastoral request of the Bohemians<a href=\"#_ftn98\">[98]<\/a> for spiritual guidance, as it is proved by the letter that it sent to them in reply; (c) in the early twentieth century, a predecessor of Meletios IV, Ecumenical Patriarch Joachim III and the Holy and Sacred Synod of the EP, in the Patriarchal and Synodal <em>Tomos<\/em> of 1908, declared that \u201c<em>the canonical order was profoundly violated<\/em>,\u201d as a consequence of ethnic ecclesiology,<a href=\"#_ftn99\">[99]<\/a> and reminded that \u201c<em>no other church or throne was able to canonically extend its power beyond the borders of its own region, with the exception of the Most Holy Apostolic and Patriarchal Ecumenical Throne<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn100\">[100]<\/a> Despite the fact that with the <em>Tomos<\/em> of 1908 the EP granted<a href=\"#_ftn101\">[101]<\/a> the administration of its \u201c<em>canonical right of spiritual protection and supervision of all orthodox Greek churches in the diaspora, in both Europe and America and the other countries<\/em>,\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn102\">[102]<\/a> to the Church of Greece, it set out certain \u201c<em>ecclesiastical conditions<\/em>\u201d that still safeguarded the EP\u2019s jurisdiction over the abovementioned regions.<a href=\"#_ftn103\">[103]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, when in 1922 Meletios IV lifted and revoked<a href=\"#_ftn104\">[104]<\/a> the <em>Tomos<\/em> of 1908 with an <em>Act<\/em>,<a href=\"#_ftn105\">[105]<\/a> he was not inventing a novel interpretation of Chal28, but he was faithfully following a centuries-old established precedent. Meletios continued this interpretation of Chal28 and after his resignation as EP and his election as Patriarch of Alexandria, as it is proved in a letter that he wrote in 1927 to Metropolitan Anthony of Kiev.<a href=\"#_ftn106\">[106]<\/a> Nevertheless, during the same year, Meletios challenged the jurisdiction of the EP over the barbaric lands in Africa and interpreted Chal28 expansively, claiming that, by analogy, this canon was applicable to the Alexandrian Church for those African lands.<a href=\"#_ftn107\">[107]<\/a> For this reason, he added the phrase \u201c<em>and of the whole Africa<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn108\">[108]<\/a> to his title. The EP rejected such an interpretation of Chal28.<a href=\"#_ftn109\">[109]<\/a> However, it decided to silently accept the situation in Africa in order to strengthen the welfare of the Alexandrian Throne.<a href=\"#_ftn110\">[110]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A successor of Meletios to the see of Alexandria, Peter VII, requested 75 years later from the current EP Bartholomew the official recognition of the jurisdiction of the Patriarchate of Alexandria over the whole African continent.<a href=\"#_ftn111\">[111]<\/a> With a Patriarchal and Synodal <em>Act<\/em>,<a href=\"#_ftn112\">[112]<\/a> the EP decided, by applying <em>\u03bf\u1f30\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1<\/em>, \u201c<em>to annex the continent of Africa and the islands adjacent to it to the canonical jurisdiction of the ancient Patriarchate of Alexandria<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn113\">[113]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interestingly enough, some of the Fathers of the HGC seemed to be ignorant of the abovementioned 2001 <em>Act<\/em>. Otherwise, it is hard to find an explanation for statements like \u201c<em>there is from the ancient times canonical jurisdiction of a certain Church, ancient and apostolic, in Africa<\/em>\u201d and, therefore, \u201c<em>no one can encroach upon it\u2026 How would it be possible ethnic Churches, Serbian, Romanian, etc. to be created in the region of Africa?<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn114\">[114]<\/a> From the ancient times, the Church of Alexandria had, indeed, canonical jurisdiction in the African continent, but only in the regions prescribed in I\/Nic6.

Truly, after 2001 no ethnic church can be created in the African continent, and as the current Patriarch of Alexandria Theodoros II testified, his immediate predecessor Peter VII deposed three clergymen from Serbia, Romania and Russia for violating the canonical territory of the Alexandrian Church, with these three Churches recognizing their transgression and asking for the forgiveness of the Alexandrian Primate.<a href=\"#_ftn115\">[115]<\/a> But even before 2001 no ethnic church could be created in the African continent in the regions outside the canonical borders of the Patriarchate of Alexandria, because these regions were not diaspora, but EP\u2019s jurisdiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>III. Harmonized Interpretation as the Solution to a Seeming Antinomy<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the same continues to be true for the regions in Western Europe, America, Asia and Oceania, why then in 1920, when the Patriarchate of Moscow attempted to send a bishop in Italy and the EP reminded to the Russian Primate that Western Europe was the EP\u2019s territory, Moscow respected that and did not proceed to its attempt,<a href=\"#_ftn116\">[116]<\/a> and today hierarchs of the same Patriarchate express their disagreement with \u201c<em>such an expansive interpretation<\/em>\u201d of Chal28, claiming the right to \u201c<em>shepherd their people that were found\u2026 outside the boundaries of their canonical Church<\/em>?\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn117\">[117]<\/a> Why does it seem that the HGC not only recognized the existence of \u201c<em>regions of the Orthodox diaspora<\/em>,\u201d but it also prohibited<a href=\"#_ftn118\">[118]<\/a> the EP from granting autonomy to those regions, requiring pan-Orthodox consensus?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If these regions are jurisdiction of the EP, then it should be totally free to exercise its right of <em>\u201cgranting autonomy within the borders of its canonical geographical region<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn119\">[119]<\/a> The deprivation of the EP from its abovementioned right could be seen as an amendment of Chal28 by the newer canonical provision of \u00a7 2.e. of the <em>Autonomy<\/em> document, in accordance with the general rule <em>lex posterior derogat priori<\/em>. Nevertheless, this rule cannot be applicable in this case, due to the expressed will of the First Pre-Conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference<a href=\"#_ftn120\">[120]<\/a> not to remove or cancel any of the existing holy canons, but to interpret them \u201c<em>in order to make them pastorally applicable to the conditions of the contemporary life of the clergy and people<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn121\">[121]<\/a> Employing this unanimously accepted methodology, upon which the decisions of the HGC were formulated and adopted, I am proposing an interpretation of \u00a7 2.e. in agreement with Chal28, as a solution to this seeming antinomy<a href=\"#_ftn122\">[122]<\/a> between these two canonical provisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The HGC in no way accepted the ethnic ecclesiology as canonical. On the contrary, it characterized the \u201c<em>Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>\u201d as \u201c<em>problem<\/em>\u201d which has to be resolved \u201c<em>as quickly as possible<\/em>\u201d on the basis of \u201c<em>Orthodox ecclesiology<\/em>\u201d and of the \u201c<em>canonical tradition and practice<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn123\">[123]<\/a> The Fourth Pre-conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference<a href=\"#_ftn124\">[124]<\/a> had decided that the HGC would give the final \u201c<em>canonical solution<\/em>\u201d to this problem.<a href=\"#_ftn125\">[125]<\/a> However, this was not possible during the Council, since the absence from it of four out of the then fourteen Orthodox autocephalous churches<a href=\"#_ftn126\">[126]<\/a> led the rest of them to the agreement not to make any substantial change to the pre-conciliar document on <em>Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>, which was approved by all of them, in order to make smoother the final document\u2019s reception even by the four absent churches.<a href=\"#_ftn127\">[127]<\/a> For this reason, the Council \u201c<em>affirmed that during the present phase it is not possible, for historical and pastoral reasons, an immediate transition to the strictly canonical order of the Church on this issue<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn128\">[128]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the HGC accepted, by applying <em>\u03bf\u1f30\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1<\/em>,<a href=\"#_ftn129\">[129]<\/a> \u201c<em>the regions of Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>\u201d only as a temporary measure \u201c<em>until the appropriate time arrives<\/em>\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn130\">[130]<\/a> for the implementation of the territorial principle \u201c<em>one bishop per city<\/em>\u201d in these regions that are part of the canonical territory of the EP. Still, though, even for this transitional period,the HGC took care not to undermine the primary role of the EP in these regions, mainly through two measures that it adopted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, the HGC proposed the creation of \u201c<em>Episcopal Assemblies<\/em>,\u201d inspired by their Roman-Catholic equivalent institution,<a href=\"#_ftn131\">[131]<\/a> a conciliar organ of all the canonically recognized Eastern Orthodox bishops in each of the abovementioned regions,<a href=\"#_ftn132\">[132]<\/a> with the purpose of manifesting Orthodox unity and of developing common action for the address of the pastoral needs of the Orthodox in these regions.<a href=\"#_ftn133\">[133]<\/a> An Episcopal Assembly will not, of course, in any case be a local synod and the bishops-members of it will continue to be subject to the canonical jurisdictions of the local autocephalous churches to which they belong.<a href=\"#_ftn134\">[134]<\/a> Despite the peculiar canonical status of an Episcopal Assembly, still the chairman of each of them will be the first among the hierarchs of the EP,<a href=\"#_ftn135\">[135]<\/a> who will directly submit matters of a more general concern that require \u201c<em>a pan-Orthodox approach<\/em>\u201d to the Ecumenical Patriarch \u201c<em>for further pan-Orthodox actions<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn136\">[136]<\/a> In this way, the EP\u2019s right and duty of the pastoral care for these regions is preserved, even if it is restricted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, the Fathers of Crete prohibited, in \u201c<em>the regions of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>,\u201d the \u201c<em>conferment of hierarchal titles that already exist<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn137\">[137]<\/a> It has been an uncanonical practice in many of these regions, not only more than one ruling Eastern Orthodox hierarchs to coexist in a city, but also more than one of them to share the same title. For example, in Germany there are currently 3 Metropolitans of Germany:<a href=\"#_ftn138\">[138]<\/a> Metropolitan Augoustinos \u201c<em>of Germany, Exarch of Central Europe<\/em>\u201d (EP); Metropolitan Isaac \u201c<em>of Germany and Central Europe<\/em>\u201d (Patriarchate of Antioch); Metropolitan Seraphim \u201c<em>of Germany and Central Europe<\/em>\u201d (Patriarchate of Romania), and one Bishop (Gregory) \u201c<em>of Germany<\/em>\u201d (Patriarchate of Serbia).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the HGC ruled that \u201c<em>the Orthodox Churches are bound to avoid actions that could hinder the \u2026 process for a canonical resolution of the issue of Diaspora<\/em>.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn139\">[139]<\/a> For this reason, during the deliberations of the Council about the document on <em>Diaspora<\/em> a proposal was made, as a temporary solution, for the inclusion of the preposition \u201c<em>in<\/em>\u201d in the titles of the hierarchs of the other autocephalous Churches\u2014with the exception of the EP\u2014in the \u201c<em>regions of the Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>.\u201d This was how the signatures of the hierarchs from these regions, who took part in the Council, appear at the end of the synodal documents adopted by it.<a href=\"#_ftn140\">[140]<\/a> This is also an additional recognition by the HGC that these regions are truly canonical territory of the EP, since only its hierarchs\u2019 titles in these regions are fully recognized and all the hierarchs from the other autocephalous churches are treated, of course, as canonical, but simply as residing bishops \u201c<em>in<\/em>\u201d these regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since all these measures adopted by the HGC in the document on <em>Diaspora<\/em> are only temporary and transitional, until the canonical solution of this thorny issue, in the same way, the second provision of \u00a7 2.e. of the <em>Autonomy<\/em> document, which prohibits all the autocephalous churches\u2014including the EP\u2014from granting autonomous status \u201c<em>in the regions of Orthodox Diaspora<\/em>,\u201d should be also interpreted as temporary and transitional, just for the period until the final settlement of this issue. This is the only interpretation that harmonizes this provision with Chal28, since any other hermeneutic approach would completely deprive the EP from its jurisdiction over the regions <em>\u1f10\u03bd \u03c4\u03bf\u1fd6\u03c2 \u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u1fd6\u03c2<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Concluding Remarks<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The EP magnanimously consented to the discussion of the two documents on <em>Diaspora<\/em> and <em>Autonomy<\/em><a href=\"#_ftn141\">[141]<\/a> and to their adoption by the HGC, because as true and caring mother,<a href=\"#_ftn142\">[142]<\/a> it shows its unceasing pastoral concern for these regions and their welfare. Knowing that the imposition of immediate measures, such as the deposition by the Holy and Sacred Synod of the EP of all the hierarchs from the other Orthodox Churches in these regions and the subjection of their parishes to the EP would cause turmoil and possible schisms, it preferred the way of gradual ascent to the canonical order<a href=\"#_ftn143\">[143]<\/a> that will also safeguard the smooth integration of all the parishes in each region into the Metropolises of the EP, with preservation of their linguistic and liturgical particularities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposed in my paper systematic interpretation of the documents on <em>Autonomy<\/em> and <em>Diaspora<\/em>, as one unit,<a href=\"#_ftn144\">[144]<\/a> is not merely advantageous for the EP.
