Over the centuries, schisms occurred in which the seceders switched allegiance to Rome, forming the Uniate churches. |

Hilarion said long-standing differences between the churches remained, most notably a row over the status of the Uniate church in Ukraine. |

Some of the monks are suspicious of me saying that I am probably a Trojan horse sent and paid by the Pope, or that I am even a Uniate. |
|
Each year approximately 70,000 pilgrims honouring the Uniate movement come to the Shrine. |
|
Negotiations now under way with the Orthodox Church should soon permit the Uniate Church to recover its property. |
|
An autocephalous Polish Orthodox church is partly linked with the small Belarusian minority, and a Ukrainian Uniate community survives in southeastern districts. |

Some very few Ukrainians belong to the Ukrainian Uniate Church, and Armenians have their own churches in Tallinn with services conducted in their own native language. |
|
As Uniate religious practices had become more Latinized, Orthodoxy in this region drew even closer into dependence on the Russian Orthodox Church. |
|
I also admired very much the freedom fight of the Ukrainians and especially of the Uniate church, which is today the dominant church of at least Southern and Western Ukraine. |
|
But far from being dead, the uniate church was not only surviving but flourishing in the underground. |
|
They thus became the earliest so-called uniate church in communion with Rome. |
