A mosaic featuring
Russian President
Vladimir Putin will no longer be displayed in a grand
MILITARY church being built outside
Moscow after the leader objected, a cleric said on Friday.
Russian Orthodox Bishop Stefan of Klin told news agency Interfax the committee in charge of the church's interior decoration "decided not to display it" because it was "the wish of the head of the country".
The mosaic is still in a workshop and is likely to be dismantled, said the bishop, who will be the archpriest of the military church.
