	Directions to Orthodoxy - PM BUCKOVSKI, HH STEFAN: GOVERNMENT FIRMLY SUPPORTS MOC
		Skopje, May 31 (MIA) - Holy Archbishopric Synod of the Macedonian Orthodox Church (MOC) rejected Tuesday the decision of the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC) Synod to recognize the so-called Ohrid Archbishopric of defrocked Bishop Zoran Vraniskovski.
		The Holy Archbishopric Synod emphasizes that SOC has neither the canonic, nor the constitutional right to pass decisions regarding MOC since 1959, when it stated that SOC Constitution does not refer to eparchies and archbishops in Macedonia.
		The Holy Archbishopric Synod thanks President Branko Crvenkovski, Prime Minister Vlado Buckovski, Macedonian Parliament, Macedonian Academy of Science and Arts, political parties and other institutions and organizations, media, and mostly the orthodox followers in the country and the diaspora for their support.
