The Russian Orthodox Church has denied rumors that the coronavirus epidemic abroad has led to changes in Patriarch Kirill’s plans for this year.
“At the moment, there are no changes in the travel schedule of His Holiness the Patriarch,” church spokesperson Vladimir Legoyda told Interfax on Friday.
Yesterday, social media websites said the Russian church leader canceled visits to Austria, North and South Koreas due to the spread of the Covid-19 disease.
