Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin proposed combining the monarchy and socialism

Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin advocated the creation of a political system that combines the features of the monarchy and socialism, and also called for not contrast the people and the government.

April 2, 2015, speaking at a round table in Moscow, the head Synodal Department for Relations between the Church and Society Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin said that Russia should build a political system "which would unite the monarchy and socialism " , since the people have sympathy for the ideals both socialism and monarchy.

“We must defend our right to have a strong central government and have a welfare state focused not only on the needs of the common man, but on his opinion, the conciliar voice, the collective mind" , - said the priest.

In addition, he believes that the people and power in Russia "always felt themselves to be something united”, therefore, “the opposition of the people and power is an idea imposed on us, alien to us . At the same time, Father Vsevolod added, that “the unity of the people and power is unthinkable without faith, which is why the value of faith is central . "
