While Lambrianides will have the full support of Bartholomew, the GOA post-Iakovos is permanently hamstrung. The archbishop on NYC is merely a figurehead.
In addition, Bartholomew’s position has eroded considerably. 20 years ago this this new papalism might have worked but no longer. Nor should we forget that Arb Spyridon had the full support of cpole back then only to be thrown under the bus when the newly-minted metropolitans closed ranks against him.
