abstract = {The article presents the history of the process of the Ukrainian Church’s efforts to obtain autocephaly. It discusses the difficult and complicated relations of the Ukrainian Church with the Patriarchate of Constantinople and the role that this Patriarchate played in the process of granting autocephaly. It outlines the complicated history of a Church divided due to the different visions of the various Ukrainian Orthodox communities established in the 20th century. All this contributed to the establishment of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (Ukr. Православна Церква України). It must be emphasised that this process has not been completed yet. The article also describes the role played by the Ukrainian authorities in the process of establishing the autocephalous Church. The process of the constitution of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine as the Church of Ukraine and its stance towards the Russo-Ukrainian war is also shown.},
