Religious analyst Zivica Tucic commented on the news by telling the Beta news agency that "Russia has nothing to do with the Edict of Milan". Previously, the Serbian media reported that Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill did not wish to meet with the Roman Catholic Pope Benedict XVI for the first time in Nis, where the anniversary of the Edict of Milan will be marked this year. The Russian Church reportedly "demanded that only the heads of Orthodox churches, and not the pope, be invited to the event". The Edict of Milan was brought by Rome's first Christian emperor, Constantine the Great, who was born in Nis (Naissus). The law declared equality of religions and marked the end of persecution of Christians that had been ongoing in the Roman Empire for the previous 313 years.
