What do you want from the commies? It's actually an AP article, who have leaned left themselves for ages.

The notion of the separation of church and state is still not in the Constitution anyhow; it appears in the USSR's constitution.
In order to ensure to citizens freedom of conscience, the church in the U.S.S.R. is separated from the state, and the school from the church. Freedom of religious worship and freedom of antireligious propaganda is recognized for all citizens.

— USSR 1936 Constitution, Article 124

Citizens of the USSR are guaranteed freedom of conscience, that is, the right to profess or not to profess any religion, and to conduct religious worship or atheistic propaganda. Incitement of hostility or hatred on religious grounds is prohibited.

In the USSR, the church is separated from the state, and the school from the church.

— USSR 1977 Constitution, Article 52
