Asked about the investigations in connection with the Avvakum Monastery, the Spokesman said: "We should expect the investigations to be completed and when there are any findings from the investigations there will be an appropriate statement."
Asked whether the state controls and taxes revenues derived from various church events, such as the transfer of sacred relics or honorary belts and others, the Spokesman said that "the procedures that have governed for years and especially the relations between the Church and the state are well known either in terms of taxes or the procedures of protocols that are followed."
