well, for me it is enough, for someone it may not be enough, and this is a question of each religious community, because, for example , each religious community takes care of its chaplains and various priests who serve there in hospitals and so on, since the orthodox church - this is a young church, a church that was constantly under repression and persecution in... until the 18th year, we can say, and there until the 14th, a church that was destroyed, institutions were destroyed, priests, even under yanukovych's regime, very it is difficult to build such a structure, for example, as the roman catholic church, which has its own funds, support funds, culture, and in general

, religious life in ukraine was destroyed, and we are still rebuilding this religious spirit, precisely the free religious spirit of ukrainians, this is also important to know, because and because, well, it will constantly arise, and secondly, the moscow patriarchate made us such a surrogate of religion, but we did not see anything except... such a model, because in ukraine it was the majority, the religious majority, which destroyed other religious communities, and they gave such a religious surrogate, we see life in kyiv the laurels of the monks, how they behaved, we have beautiful brothers, the greek catholic church, which gave this example of service, and as an example, it is probably the ukrainian catholic university, which we see, as what... there are ee,

what are such fruits , which he provides, the good works of the church, which it is on the way out, leads, and if we are talking about the orthodox church, then it is only being rebuilt, it is difficult to do , and of course, we want everything, but we cannot do everything, and then we you have to tell your faithful and these people who want to do. what is this come and do it, no one, some uncle with a beard will do it for you, huh, and that's why i became a priest, because i wanted social service to be developed in the ukrainian church, that's why i'm doing social service, so that i, for example , i dream of the chaplain i want to see, so i can become that chaplain and try to be the chaplain i would like to see. and the church is

a community of people, so any person can come and bring changes, both in the state and in the church, and in any institution, as far as it is difficult for you, or you understand, during these periods when you are with our military at the front, in fact, when you return to the rear, you'. as a member of the clergy, do you react as a serviceman to what you see, nevertheless, as a priest, as a priest and a citizen, yes, of course, that i belong to the community of servicemen, but a priest is a representative, nevertheless, of such peace, peace, this is a spiritual friend, this is... the spiritual leader

of the unit, but he is still not a military serviceman to the end, that is why he can to be such a mediator between civilian life and military life, ugh, and somewhere to intervene and say something, and okay, and now the world is in a state of turbulence, and it is not only about the russian-ukrainian war, we see how, in particular, on the religious against the backdrop of the developing situation in the middle east , for example, this is how we understand the duration of the conflict between muslims and jews on the territory of israel and those territories that should become palestine, and karl voloch once remarked, i say, i look at all this as the awakening of certain anti-semitism...

of movements around the world in connection with the situation, and not only that, and sometimes it seems to me that ukraine is like some kind of oasis, an island of common sense precisely in this. sense, because , first of all, our people, and it is also multi -component in the context of religion, we have representatives of both muslims and jews, and not only that, and all this works, all this works in the context of one army , all this works in the context of one state, but what do you think, does ukraine really have a chance to become... such common sense for the whole world, at least an example of what can happen when we will win and when we follow the victory, we will be one of the most powerful states with a lot of experience, today there is

a possibility that we can lose also lose this religious freedom, because... there is, i call it, i call it the moscow patriarchate, for example, christian fascism, when totalitarian states use the religious factor in their interests, it can also be said the east, what is happening there now with israel in palestine, because a priori any religion is a religion of good, like judaism, like islam and christianity. this is her concept of love for a person not to harm and so on, but we see that when a totalitarian leader comes and he starts to rule the religious community, this community becomes aggressive, and you can

return as, as you want, what you want to do, and the main thing is that we did not become such that we would preserve that... religious freedom and understanding for what, what is faith at all for, ugh, and what, because in ukraine there is a trend of what you can believe in, what you can't believe in, and to spray the conflict is very simple between between by people, and the main thing is to prevent it from happening, i think that it is precisely the common goal of victory that allows people of different ... views to gather and unite, but the enemy does everything to keep us divided as well, and he also does it professionally, and we must always be , let's say, alert, how

cooperation looks like within our army, where it is appropriate, where it is possible, whether it exists at all, representatives of christianity, islam, judaism, we understand that all the same spiritual needs our people, they can be different, because they have different faiths, and that's normal, too how is it, how does it fit together, do you have , relatively speaking, friends, colleagues, and, please, please, friends, colleagues from another faith, another religion, and how does it all get along in one army, well, just recently i was in a chaplain in the command of the territorial defense forces, this is the largest number of chaplains in his kind of troops, there are about 80 chaplains, assistants who belong to regular communities, and in the service of the chaplain service of the territorial defense, the armed forces of ukraine, there are muslims,

there are jews, there are representatives evangelical churches, and i recently created an interreligious chaplaincy council there, uh, that... to help each other, and, for example, in one of the brigades, the chaplain of the brigade, he is, he belongs to evangelical christians, this is such a christian trend in faith, and in there are a lot of orthodox people in his brigade, and for example, it will be christmas there soon, and on christmas day, of course, everyone is used to seeing people, even those people who do not go to church, they want to sing the carol. they see a priest to sprinkle food with holy water, read a prayer, and of course he he preaches very well, he knows the word, the holy writing, but he is not an orthodox priest, everyone knows about it, he invites a neighboring unit

of an orthodox priest, who, together with him, on major holidays, traditional for the orthodox, closes, let's say there the needs that he cannot... do and provides guardianship specifically to orthodox christians, as well, for example, we have a chaplain imam, we also elected ourselves the patron of the territorial forces. defense, it was necessary to vote, but the patrons of siltorial defense were, of course, everyone representatives of the christians of the christian community, it is not even among all evangelical christians, there is no such thing as honoring saints, there is no such, there is no such tradition, it is among greek catholics, orthodox roman catholics, there are some leterans and... even he actively participated, this muslim of

ours, and he has a religious education, and he and the orthodox priests gave suggestions in the same way, and for sure, what can we say when we say today what the ukrainian church is, in general, it is any religious community , which carries peace, goodness and helps his people. two, almost two years of the great war, and you too, you have in this war, well, actually since 2014, probably one of the most difficult tasks, in particular, conducting the last journey of our troops, realizing that one of them will now go to the battle will most likely not return. you also provide this support, then the support of their families, who will apply,

i have a question: do you work with psychologists, is it exclusively, or does faith help in this way, well, i mean , i have no idea how people charge it, how you charge it, priests they are the same people, they are they injure themselves, they also burn out, they can score some things, that is, it is postponed for... health and physical and mental health, of course we have our own psychological retreats there, when we leave, we say with each other, we support each other, we also use the help of a professional psychologist, sometimes a psychiatrist or a psychotherapist, we also conduct, let’s say , such supervision for each other, how stable am i still or do i need to rest, etc. of course, your family helps you, and loved ones, and brothers, and it is important

to follow yourself and what is happening to you, uh, and i think that every priest, if someone does not do this, it is necessary to understand that god is sending you a psychologist and loved ones people through whom he acts to support you, to support you, and... also in that there is faith, faith that god is in every person who will support you. i apologize if i crossed the line into something personal now, but these are extremely important things, very applied, in my opinion, and now, when we are talking about politics, about the military situation, about the situation in the world, almost everyone came to an agreement that this war... will be difficult and long, and there is no need to be enchanted by some

borders of the year 91 tomorrow, bathing in the crimea and so on, that's in general not very ethical , it seems to me in relation to both our military and people for whom this is not just a territory, but a home, everyone now reaches this moment already exhausted, in fact to the moment and to this understanding, and it seems that our... our souls are already empty, but there is still a long way ahead. what would you advise the military , you work with the military, of course, but also civilians, who are now someone, someone, someone is apathetic, someone is disappointed, someone is catastrophically tired, who also works with the military or with people who suffered during the war, someone is terribly evil, so evil that... when we talk about the commandments, it doesn't work for some reason,

what would you advise these people, well, the commandments work, the main commandment of love, because we will protect what we love, huh , this is the main commandment, it is the source of our unlimited motivation, i always say that the secret of ukrainians is limitless motivation, limitless love, because... we can't get tired of loving our children, ugh, we can't get tired of loving loved ones, our parents, tell yourself, you tell your children , you know, i'm tired, i can't love you anymore, but what is unlimited motivation? the example is very simple, imagine that you or one of your close people is sick, they need the simple medicine aspirin, but you urgently need aspirin or some vitamin c. we go to the pharmacy, but the pharmacy

is closed, and our actions will be that we go to another pharmacy, but i would complicate the task. would say that in the city of kyiv, all pharmacies are closed after curfew or something like that, but she works in the bylay church, should we go to the white church for important medicines, of course we will go, no matter how much i make this task, a person to whom it is necessary and when i say when you stop the answer must be one until i find a cure our goal is victory and... and the goal victory is not important, it will be tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, we will go for victory as much as we need it, until we win, and victory, it does not consist of whether we keep avdiyivka, bakhmut or kupyansk, victory can consist of defeats, because

you don't need to look at two years of war, a full war, 10. years of a full war, 10, i would never divide this war, and even more so we would say whether the upa army won, or the unr won, or lost, if you look at the time of the ukrainian people's republic, we can say that it lost, because there was an occupation, a famine, the destruction of the ukrainian state, culture, but if we are all here and resist, then they won, and if we see... we are in the 91st year and the restoration of independence, then we see that it was all not in vain, the struggle of these people was not in vain, was the orange revolution a failure, but we made a revolution of dignity at the orange revolution, did the revolution on the granite lose, or now we see, these are young young students who went to

the revolution on the granite, today they are very famous people, politicians which affect society, and we see that it was also not in vain, and usually also our struggle, it lasts for many years, but we will see what the enemy did, whether the enemy took at least one regional center, whether he carried out the plans that he declared, that in three months they would take luhansk , donetsk region, what putin declared, nothing was done, or ukraine. e received a lot of help at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, did she have such a moment, she was not powerful enough, and of course you just have to tell yourself, and everyone should tell themselves how much i will fight and what motivates me for our struggle, i have two

grown-up children, and for their future i will fight to the end, i love... my people, my parishioners, military personnel, the earth, our worlds, our christmas, and i want the carol to ring throughout ukraine, and in the temporarily occupied territories, so i will fight until now until we win, and we talk about this to the military personnel, always, and find understanding, and if we really love our people and love our... land , then we can speed up the victory in two ways, that is unity, in unification to wash one by one, like military personnel at the front, like civilians who now live in semi-peaceful cities,

but this is the elimination of corruption, this is the first priority... the same continuation of such bureaucratic systems that interfere, this is the judicial system, and to be kinder to each other, and christmas itself teaches us to be kinder to each other, because the one who really loves is invincible. the last question, i promise you, i'm sure, has been asked many times before, forgiveness. under what conditions, for how long, and in general, whether it maybe? coexistence with these people who... if they did not personally take part in it physically, but are the source of the trouble that came to our land, because it was they who chose it, because it was they

who kept silent, because it was them, well, we can continue and so on , how and when, and whether, whether it is possible, and whether we should even think about it now, we can think about forgiveness after victory, because punished ... evil can be talked about forgiveness, if the person who committed the crime, repents of this crime, understands that she committed a crime, and she is not just asking forgiveness, and it corrects the crime committed, and when we see that a person is corrected, and the common crime that is now created with our people, with our land, it will be difficult to forgive and difficult to correct, but this is solved by the whole society, and we can talk about it and enter into any dialogue after a victory,

a just peace, a just victory. thank you for this conversation, serhiy dmitriev, chaplain of the military institute of shevchenko kyiv national university. i hope you had the same conversation needed, as well as me, as of now. well, we wish you happy holidays, we wish you not to forget under what conditions we celebrate the next christmas and thanks to whom most importantly we can celebrate it. thank you, my name is khrystyna yatskiv, see you soon. turn on well - this is when everything is there. you want a click and you are in the world of cartoons, click and around the world of cinema, then on the good, oh, what you need, megogo, turn on
