Yup. Russian Orthodoxy considers Moscow to be the "third Rome" and the true inheritors of the mantle of Peter. As far as they are concerned, Constantinople inherited the mantle from Rome when the Schism occurred and the Roman Catholics are apostates. And when Constantinople fell, they inherited the mantle, so current Greek Orthodox are apostates.
