Strong opposition to the Kremlin regime and the Russian Orthodox Church subordinate to the Moscow Patriarchate, which is viewed as a security threat and a weapon of hybrid warfare. [The text/speaker] criticizes the Center Party's amendment proposal to the Church Law for not having a sufficiently broad scope. It expresses surprise and skepticism regarding the President's shifting arguments for vetoing the Church Law, suggesting that it would be more appropriate to let the Supreme Court make the decision.

A direct confrontation with political opponents is avoided, but he supports the President of the Republic's criticism regarding the ambiguous wording of the law. He stresses that while the objective of ensuring security is legitimate, the actual implementation of the law is deficient. He clearly differentiates between supporting the aggressor's crime (the Moscow Patriarchate) and softer statements (a reference to the previous Pope), underscoring the necessity of expert analysis.

Strong opposition to the political activities of the Moscow Patriarchate, labeling it a tool of the Putin regime and the KGB. It indirectly criticizes colleagues who oppose the amendment to the church law, linking their stance to the support of hostile actions (conquest, killing).
