The fact that Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople called US leader Joe Biden “our president” is natural, because most of the believers of the Patriarchate of Constantinople live in the United States, Anton Ignatenko, president of the Institute of Religion and Politics, told RIA Novosti.

Patriarch Bartholomew called Biden “our president” and declared that he was a “believer” who “with his considerable power will make a contribution to this wonderful country and the whole world.”
