Alexandria is not an independent entity, as we have seen recently. It is just an appendage of the Phanar with funding from Greece. In general, this is all you need to know about this “ancient patriarchy.” What canonical acts can be from Alexandria in relation to the ROC? Maximum ban or expel from the dignity of clerics who have transferred to the Moscow Patriarchate.
“Pentarchy” is such an ephemeral philosophical construct of the Justinian era. We do not forget that there was no Cyprus in Pentarchy, this is an invention of the Phanar. The Pentarchy is Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem. By the way, one of the arguments in favor of the elevation of the Moscow Metropolitan to the patriarchal dignity was precisely the need to “replenish” the Pentarchy. Rome has disappeared, “Rosia” has been added. That is why, by the way, the place of the Moscow Patriarch in the diptychs is 5th, in front of much more ancient Churches.
In addition, we must not forget that not all the Churches of Pentarchy are Greek (Antioch), not all even the Greek Churches support the actions of Constantinople (Jerusalem). How will they bend? Will they be brought by force and forced to sign the decisions? Although the fact that Jerusalem will now be strongly persuaded to condemn Moscow is beyond doubt.
Without Jerusalem, it will look like this – they will gather the Patriarch of Alexandria, the Greek, Cypriot and Albanian (questionable) archbishops on the Phanar and “conciliarly” issue some kind of ban against the Russian Orthodox Church, the price of which will be 5 kopecks.
