Wealthy Russian church prince and pro-Putin voice Kirill continues to support war in Ukraine: who is this former KGB spy?

Kirill, the patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church, once again expressed his support for the war in Ukraine on Wednesday. Not for the first time: in February 2022, at the start of the ‘special military operation’, the prelate pronounced his blessing on the Russian soldiers who entered Ukraine. He has since expressed his support for Vladimir Putin several times.
