Kyiv" On 18 June, 2008, Patriarch Filaret received a delegation of
the Romanian Orthodox Church headed by Archimandrite Modest, the
Coadjutor Bishop of Ardzhysh Eparchy, at the Kyivan Patriarchate. He
assured Patriarch Filaret that the Romanian Orthodox Church supports
the efforts of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyivan
Patriarchate to establish the local Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The
delegation visited the city to venerate the Ukrainian shrines. This
story was reported by the press center of the Kyivan Patriarchate.

This may or may not have anything to do with the present situation but was not Kiev baptized in the Faith (Apostle Andrew)way before Moscow? Should not the “Patriarchate’s” foundation be Kiev according to ancient custom? I am just trying to understand why Kiev has been so severely short-changed and Moscow elevated.
