A protest rally against the Pope is taking place outside the GSP, at the time when the Divine Liturgy is taking place inside the stadium.

As you will see in the SigmaLive images and videos, there are banners with slogans such as "We do not bow to the Pax Vaticana", "Orthodoxy = Freedom, Pope = Globalization", "Curse the Pope, he will be the cause".
