My point about ROCOR is that in compromising with them, Moscow ignores the Tomos of Autocephaly, and adds fuel to arguments against the legitimacy the OCA's Autocephaly. At no point did Moscow ever entertain taking the stand that it would be inappropriate for ROCOR to "compete" in the OCA's territorial region. Re-establishing Communion trumps the Canons? There are times when I wonder if ROCOR was wanting recognition from Moscow, or if Moscow wanted recognition from ROCOR.
Hmm. Not to be pedantic, but what, exactly is Moscow supposed to do? It is not like they have ever had any "power" over the ROCOR to begin with. That cat got let out of the bag a long time ago. They are not going to force ROCOR to do anything they are not ready and willing to do, let's be honest shall we?
