I'd like to share two articles of 2011 year that prof. Aristeides Papadakis sent me by post. I've scanned them and he allowed me to share them (to download - enter the number and press on the green button):

They describe important point:

Also I found online two more of his articles, first one dedicated to the same question, and second observes history of the Orthodox Church:
