With the ROC itself already seems to be dissatisfied with ostentation Cyril begin accusations of kowtowing to the secular authorities and other transgressions - the patriarch and his staff are one of the most luxurious yachts in Russia and not very legitimately exploited symbols of state power of the Russian Federation.



Black yacht "Pallada" with tinted windows, with the Russian coat of arms on the sides and the tricolor at the stern moored Nikolsky monastery of Valaam archipelago. Not far from here is the residence of the Patriarch Valaam. "Pallada" is almost always worth here - built for her own dock. Against the background of St. Nicholas Church, it looks like a presidential limousine on the background of the Kremlin.



According to locals, on a yacht ride VIP-guests arriving by Balaam, and he loves her, Patriarch Kirill. In September last year, for example, His Holiness made on the "Pallas" Voyage Volga.



"Pallada" - an exclusive luxury ship, its description can be found in the catalogs of the most famous yachts. It was built in the shipyards of the Dutch-Russian consortium Timmerman Yachts in 2003, designed by the Dutch architect Guido de Groot.



The yacht is designed for comfortable accommodation of 8 people plus there are cabins for four crew members. On board are arranged living room with home theater and bar, dining room with dining table for 8 persons and more bedrooms, some of which have king-size double beds. The floors are covered with white carpets. White leather furniture is made of luxury wood.



The yacht is equipped with modern facilities: including electronic chart system, radar "SONAR" receiver navigational warnings, cameras mooring and a bow thruster.



Before serve Patriarch, "Pallada" belonged Office of the President of Russia. Then President Vladimir Putin was. They say that the yacht was specially built for the 300-letyu Petersburg to the head of state could adequately meet her guests of the sea capital of Russia. At the same boat Vladimir Putin took part in the celebration of the 1250th anniversary of Staraya Ladoga. In 2005, "Pallas" was presented to the Russian Orthodox Church. But not directly to the president, and through the "mediator". Manager of ownership of a yacht bought "Lukoil", and then oil gave her church. Most likely, the scheme was giving pre-built at the highest level, by mutual agreement between the leaders of business, church and state power.



Since the "churched" Yacht six years have passed, but the pagan "Pallada" and not cross (as promised) in the Orthodox "Vsetsaritsa." And even armorial bearings, which were put to her status as the yacht went president of Russia, still adorn the sides of her. Although the use of the coat of arms of the Russian Federation anywhere prohibited by federal constitutional law "On the State Emblem of the Russian Federation." It lists all the cases, when, where and by whom the Russian coat of arms can be used. The case of the yacht "Pallada" it is not described. That is, the ROC has no right to use his ship armorial bearings ... but uses.
