The Kremlin said on Friday it would defend Russians and Russian speakers in Ukraine politically and diplomatically from any illegal activity against them amid a historic Ukrainian split from the Russian Orthodox Church.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on a conference call that the Kremlin was deeply concerned by attempts to create a schism in the Orthodox church.
