Putin takes the Throne of Byzantine Emperors on Athos

Russian President Vladimir Putin continues his pilgrimage on Athos. Vladimir Putin arrives in Karyes. Karyes is the  administrative center of Athos. Putin currently takes the Throne, where only Byzantine Emperors sat in the past.

More on this from Katehon:

Both the Russian government and the Russian Church is now in need of spiritual support from the Athos elders. The State holds back the tide of the godless Western liberalism, which increases the pressure on Russia in all directions and unambiguously threatens to start a direct military conflict. The Church wages a spiritual war, and is preparing to confront the ecumenical and Renovationist trend at the upcoming Pan-Orthodox Council in late July.
