The RTOC today
The RTOC numbers several dozen [[parish]]es in Russia and Ukraine and a handful of parishes abroad. Among the better known are the former ROCOR [[cathedral]] in Lyons, France, and the [[Lesna Convent]], also in France. the latter left the ROCOR for the RTOC following the signing of the [[Act of Canonical Communion with the Moscow Patriarchate|Act of Canonical Communion]] between the ROCOR and the Moscow Patriarchate in 2007. The RTOC also maintains a number of web-logs and newspapers, which publish political propaganda critical of the current Russian government and the Russian Orthodox Church. These include the popular Russian émigré newspaper ''Nasha Strana'' (''Our Country'').
Critics of the RTOC frequently point out argue the RTOC is primarily a political organization, with financial ties to the Ukrainian Bankers Association.<ref>[http://agafa-angel.livejournal.com/5289.html?thread=424105 СЛАВА БОГУ!], A web-log entry on a Provisional Supreme Church Authority (PSCA) blog, claiming the RTOC is funded by the UBA (Russian)</ref>
