0
Metropolitan Stephanos of the Estonian Apostolic Orthodox Church (EAÕK) indicated that the Estonian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (MPEÕK) cannot adopt the name "Estonian Orthodox Church" as its new title. This name belongs to the Orthodox Church in Estonia under the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, and the EAÕK itself uses this name in other languages.
