On August 29, 2014, Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk, head of the Moscow Patriarchate’s department for external church relations, met with the Ambassador of the Republic of Lebanon to the Russian Federation, Mr. Bou Nassar.
The head of the Lebanese diplomatic mission in Moscow spoke about the difficult situation in which his country has found itself in the wake of the so-called “Arab Spring” and the situation of refugees from Syria, Palestine and Iraq who have found asylum in Lebanon. Mr. Nassar informed Metropolitan Hilarion that the head of the Lebanon’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, Mr. Gerban Bassil, appealed to the International Criminal Court, informing the general prosecutor of this court about crimes against humanity committed by militants in Iraq.
The sides discussed further joint efforts for preventing interreligious conflicts in the region.
Since you are here…
…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website.
However, resources for editorial are scarce.
In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription.
It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.
Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service,
weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers.
Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible -
Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.
For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little?
A cup of coffee?
It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.
If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month,
they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ,
Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
