Abstract
In February 2020 representatives of Orthodox churches met in Amman, Jordan to discuss the situation of Orthodoxy in Ukraine. The Amman meeting offers a snapshot of the inner dynamics and tensions in world Orthodoxy, where the autocephaly of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine (OCU) currently is a central concern. It sheds light on challenges facing the OCU and its capacity to pursue wider recognition through relationships and communion. After introducing the concepts of recognition and communion, the author examines the preparations, proceedings, and significance of the meeting in Amman. He concludes with a reflection on: (1) how Amman helps to situate the controversy around the OCU’s recognition squarely in the context of international Orthodoxy, and (2) why it is urgent for the churches in Ukraine and Russia to replace divisive speech and action with a renewed commitment to inter-Orthodox communion as an ethical imperative. Despite the polarization arising from the Russia–Ukraine conflict, the two churches face similar challenges in protecting their autonomous moral agency in the public sphere from political co-optation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
