We offer the pious reader a small tour of Suzdal. It is clear to anyone who takes a look around, who it was exactly that built these churches, who is responsible for the abomination of desolation through which they came into ruin, and who it is that restored them.
The Vladimir Regional Court of Arbitration ruled that the government should take possession of 13 churches in the City of Suzdal, and six in the surrounding villages, for its own use. In this way, the suit brought by the Territorial Administration called "Rosimushchestvo" came to a close. According to Rosimushchestvo, as a result of inspecting these buildings, that had been in use by the ROAC, several instances of "usage violations…" had been noticed, and other such bureaucratic linguistic garbage. In these photographs, one can clearly see what condition these church buildings were in when the people of the ROAC first received them, and how they look now. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who it was for these many years that is truly responsible for "improper use."
As is evident, it wasn't Rosimushchestvo that built these churches, and it wasn't Rosimushchestvo that is the real owner of these churches. To the contrary; it is the native population of the City of Suzdal, which today is again being chased out of them by our "comrades."
At this time, there is a great propaganda campaign, a real informational war even, to discredit ROAC. The officials are saying that "schismatics" have driven the churches into ruin and now require great funds for their "restoration." There is no doubt as to where the funds will go in reality.
