Archbishop Ieronymos on Monday received the Orthodox Metropolitan of France, His Eminence Emmanuel, and the Ecumenical Patriarchate’s Metropolitan of Adrianopolis, His Eminence Amphilochios.
According to reports, the meeting comes amid efforts to warm relations between the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople and the Autocephalous Orthodox Church of Greece.
Several major issues in inter-Orthodox relations have arisen over the recent period, including the current Greek government’s insistence on modifying Church-state relations and the granting of the Tomos of autocephaly by the Patriarchate to the Orthodox Church of the Ukraine, among others.
