[000:00:00;00] we live in a great country, and it is true that every time after the brutal upheavals of the death of thousands of people, the state gathered again into a single system. from a rigid centralized system of government, where i hold the state together, as it was in the ussr, we are building a new world of a different person. this is a memory of someone who likes it, someone does not, but it is

a memory. and we need to win over you and me security officers of ukraine who blocked all the entrances and exits of the oldest kiev monastery among the monks, the ukrainian military were looking for the so-called

russian spies of moscow's special services. ukraine can name any monk or priest of the monastery who did not want to break off relations with the russian orthodox church. searches were carried out in dozens of ukrainian churches . formally, the reason for the cruel raid was the performance by parishioners in one of the temples of a song about russia. after numerous searches , the sbu officers reported they found orthodox magazines printed in russia by the ukrainian special services. i was not embarrassed that all these publications of spiritual content were printed more than three years ago, even though they are old, but they are from moscow for this fact alone. it has long been enough in ukraine to accuse any orthodox christian of attacking him,

throwing him in jail and even killing him. orthodox churches from ukrainian positions from a ukrainian drone were blasted by missiles and killed the girl miroslav vorontsov, she was the bride of an employee of the gorlovsky and brachial management a few years ago. the priests told how they were buried and the fragments whistled past, not a single service was canceled. i think that for this , in general, you just need marriage for stamina. it is for this strength of spirit that the priest

should be rewarded. residents of donetsk who came to the liturgy today ask only one question. what happened to the country? where those who pray for peace are outlawed, and most importantly, who and when divided ukraine also on religious grounds. there are places that connect the earth with the sky, and there are places where the connection goes garden. ukraine on july 28, 2008, on the day of the celebration of the 1,020th anniversary of the baptism of russia , tens of thousands of

people gathered on maidan nezalezhnosti in kiev to greet the hierarchs of the russian orthodox church who came to kiev for the anniversary celebrations from moscow. russia ukraine belarus is holy russia scanning this slogan people do not yet know that after only a few years those who greeted the moscow patriarch on the streets of kiev will be officially recognized as enemies of the ukrainian state. we are in mariupol with me father feofan apartments uspensky nikola vasilyevsky monastery he was, please, history. in the fifteenth year, i was kidnapped by an employee from and uh, i was kept here in the department on georgievskaya for 77 days. in the first, torture was used here

, they turned on my hat was pulled over my head. so i didn't see anything i was told so steps steps steps. well, actually, the entrance is this creepy place in the back when you are in the same room with a person. he says, right here , they beat me with a baseball bat in the legs. here right here right here they tied me up and beat me with a stun gun, and then they subjected me to torture in hell. here they began to beat with current and, in general, on the legs. the blows to the head were such boxing direct blows, and then it turned out to be few. and somewhere nearby they put handcuffs on the floor, fastening the e, put a rag on the back of the back and poured water on it. he is not the only one like him, there are a lot of dozens of episodes confirmed by documentary evidence with witnesses

that, yes, the priest of initiation, they simply took him away and then no one saw the priest. or is he i returned a month later and was silent for a very long time, because apparently, but i went through the guard, as a result, you ended up free on the exchange. the exchange was from 15 apu fighters. so they gave me one to them. in what is happening now religious life in ukraine for the journalist alexander egortsev. no, nothing surprising before his eyes , for years the cradle of russian orthodoxy was turned into a country where the church, subordinate to the moscow patriarch, was called hostile and subject to destruction. an alarm came from the neighboring village of yegor information that autocephalous schismatics seized an orthodox church there, then for the first time in my life i experienced something such a violent seizure of churches.

what are nationalist combat detachments, when we were filming the feast of the intercession of the mother of god in western ukraine, a crowd of half-drunk nationalists of local residents came, and they began to beat orthodox priests in front of me. we tried to shield the clergy. and we ran to the car and further along the mountains began to move away from the chase. give me a car. i told you with my footage. yes, as soon as possible. do you think the chain of attacks on the orthodox

church of ukraine began immediately after the collapse of the soviet union, the main target for nationalists were churches and monasteries in the western regions, the former soviet republic in the late nineties. uh, there was a mass armed attack on the lutsk diocesan administration. the combat detachments of the unavanso nationalists used a metal bar of reinforcement and began to beat the orthodox, including the clergy, and one of the priests , his father died from the heavy beatings. nicholas flew died from the beatings that he received during the defense of the cathedral church in lutsk, we are dealing with our enemies precisely from the religious war. our opponents are well aware that they will not destroy orthodoxy. they will not destroy russia with an operation for church schism.

it began precisely in the western regions of ukraine, it was not by chance that the repressions of the orthodox were carried out. there were still 17 centuries, when these territories inhabited by russians were controlled by catholics from poland or lithuania, the polish authorities decided that the best way to separate the orthodox majority, the occupied territories from the rest of russia let's offer a different faith. we were filming the cathedral of hell, and there we paid attention to one curious icon and osafat kuntsevich, a tuneat saint, usually on our orthodox icons, saints are depicted either with a cross in their hands or with the gospel. well, as a symbol during the gospel sermon about love, osafat kuntsevich was depicted on the icon with an ax, it turns out that when the union was planted on the lands of western ukraine, it was osafat kuntsevich who acted with fire and sword, the idol of the ukrainian uniates kuntsevich with particular cruelty forced the orthodox to refuse

from his faith, the task, implanted by the cross and sword of the union of brest in 1596, was to transfer the entire population of western ukraine to the subordination of the vatican. i relax your weapons, that the fire on the purges of taxis, as the commonwealth was not a one-sided process. its goal was to seize control over the religious and, of course, cultural political process, that is , to reformat the identity of the population, but the plan of warsaw fell through, people even under the threat of torture and death refused to change their faith , it was the issue of orthodoxy that became the key the reason for the voluntary entry of ukrainian lands in 1654 into the russian population of ukraine worked in the opposite direction. as it were, it led to the reunification

of little russia with the russian state, and by the end of the 17th century, to the transfer of the kiev metropolis to the moscow patriarchate. about a day, brother and brother will unite and there will be no power to break us down, the religious factor for the separation of ukraine from russia did not disappear for this, first austria-hungary, and after poland and germany , several church formations hostile in moscow it was they who at the beginning of the 20th century became the center for spreading ideas about the superiority of the ukrainian nation and the creation of a state independent of russia, the peasant at the beginning of world war ii, the most aggressive collaborationist structures consisted of

representatives of ukrainian nationalists. here, especially in volhynia, a terrible terror was against the clergy of the canonical church, hundreds of priests, one bishop became victims. here are bandera, years later bandera will be recognized as a hero, and his followers of ukrainian nationalists, supported by american special services, returned to politics and again demanded special rights for the ukrainian

church. in the winter of 2013, in these footage, the protests that would later be called maidan, the ukrainian church played a significant role in these events. glory to ukraine for the protests, almost half of the protesters were students of catholic universities these days uniate priests themselves arrived in kiev many of them are citizens of belgium, poland and the united states, for example, the rector ukrainian catholic university. boris goofy. all her voice maidan god bless you. take it to this radical part of ukrainian society that people who pretended to be orthodox and from the so-called ukrainian orthodox

church independent of moscow addressed themselves from the maidan stage. during the protests. these priests did not take up the cross in order to speak of love for one's neighbor, mercy and peace . they called for killing. days, most of the priests of the canonical church openly opposed the state be christians, don't go in there no. protorin andrei tkachev, the most famous, priest. in 1914, he openly opposed the maidan, openly denounced the maidan, after which there were assassination attempts, and he was forced to come here to russia, to moscow. here is the very idea of ​​a nation, as it is formulated in the texts

of nationalist ideologists. she disputes the supremacy of god for a believer - this is a catastrophe, you need to decide, or i'm with god and then what will happen next, including with ukraine or with ukraine then the question arises. with what kind of faith, in response , a wave of attacks by nationalists on churches and believers swept across the country, just as in the 17th century, under the threat of weapons, the orthodox were forced to go under the aegis of the scholars, but not only kunniat. and as the fallen athlon of the orthodox church, who called himself a separate church of ukraine, the schism in ukraine was headed by mikhail denisenko. he himself called himself patriarch philaret. although back in the ninety -second year, priest denisenko was excommunicated from the russian orthodox church and anathematized for blackmailing bishops in connection with the kgb, violating an oath and non-observance of church canons in kiev by a monk. denisenko had a family, a wife and

three children in the fourteenth year called for the end of the world. of the apocalypse against russia against the russian church and directly, uh, such curses, as it were, against russian orthodoxy. and they do have, uh, serious

problems. and who is more jesus christ or ukraine that is, in principle, these are pagans? these are idolaters, the lord is trampled on , they are rejected as the lord, and a nation with blessing is put in his place self-proclaimed patriarch filaret since 2014, nationalist attacks on orthodox churches and priests of the moscow patriarchate in violation of all the laws of fr. protection of freedom of conscience becomes a new reality in ukraine how did relatives, state- supported representatives of the new nationalist church begin a truly massive seizure of churches and

monasteries? in general, in fact, to protect both the temple and my house, where i lived then today, father vladimir serves in a small church in russian belgorod, our glory after the ukrainian attacks nationalists on a small temple of the russian orthodox church, located a few kilometers from kiev, the priest was forced to flee ukraine with his family

, god said despite such external pressure, a huge number of clergymen of the canonical ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate remain faithful. there was another seizure of churches in the city of the turk, the pokrovsky cathedral. a ukrainian by nationality, familiar to me, served there, again stressed. and here again they brought in a combat detachment of nationalists. they seize this cathedral of orthodox believing grandmothers, they threw the temple out into the street, they cordoned off deeply they don’t give a damn about christianity and

orthodoxy. the main thing for vera is to throw the orthodox economic churches out of the temple. sloboda stoichevich, author of books on the history of the orthodox church, closely monitor the processes taking place in ukraine surprisingly, but not in detail. it looks like a split operation launched by the americans. on the beams many years ago a strategy that developed. and you are all doing this in the interest of the american empire, in order to weaken our the nation-state must be weakened and our national orthodox churches shattered. it did not give unity in the orthodox faith to russians and ukrainians. well, hate

each other gnaw e each other's throats. and all this western analytics monitored all this, and therefore just with the help of the patriarchate of constantinople. e was struck precisely at orthodox unity on january 6, 2019. the president of ukraine poroshenko arrives in istanbul here he receives the so-called thomas letter of ecclesiastical independence of kiev from moscow the signature is put by the patriarch of constantinople of barthology, the so-called orthodox church of ukraine, in this case, too, a purely political project. it was equally beneficial to the united states and poroshenko well, constantinople, in general, was not averse to reasserting itself in ukraine and creating its own such, almost dependent autocephalous church in serbia for close ties with the greek diaspora of america and

the us state department of bartholomew they call the patriarch of washington he visited the white house more than once met with hillary clinton hosted at the residence of former secretary of state mike pompeo and even current us president joe bidenapone patriarchate of istanbul. uh, also financially dependent entirely on american parishes. and completely dependent on american money. basically, it's not advertised that way. well, well , well known. it is a historical fact that e was the previous patriarch. he was also an american citizen and he was literally on a plane to istanbul october 1997 , bartholomew is awarded the congressional gold medal in the highest award of the united states, he received it for 3 years

before pope john paul ii , the patriarchy is practically under the complete control of the american special services, so the american special services, with their figures , are playing the process of splitting the orthodox ukrainian church against russia. then this person carefully studied and possibly supervised this person, one of the highest officials of the us state administration, john hurst, a close friend of the patriarch of bartholomew, the former us ambassador to kiev, john kherson . uh, he was doing specific. e ukrainian of the orthodox church, and that's how this schism will deepen in ukraine through the definition of funds fund, sorosh, fund, rockferals, funds, ford and other funds, international money is given. yes, the limiting non-government organizations within a particular state.

it's just infantry. this is the soft power of the separation of the ukrainian church. from moscow it turned into a real special operation, for which for years, without stinting in washington , millions of dollars were allocated. in 2018 , a special diplomat for world religious affairs. sam brownback . by the way, he still continues to work in the biden administration. with such a very powerful near criminal catholic organization experience in 2018. he committed to the medical patriarchy. who is himself a protege of america and i will explain the position of the party of american special services in the processes of splitting the ukrainian, orthodoxy indirectly, says the award of the examining director. cia jack devine. he received an order from the kiev false patriarch

filaret with the wording for supporting the maidan and assistance in creating a church separate from moscow, american intelligence services. they perfectly understand that orthodoxy is , that ideological matrix that allows russia to remain as a state and has the potential to unite the russian world in one status or another, therefore, based on its own interests, the destruction of russia of the russian world. they are doing everything possible to prevent this from happening after the start of the special operation in february 2022, hundreds of priests and believers were forced to flee from ukraine, those who remained living in an atmosphere permeated with fear in anticipation of the arrest and confiscation of church property, the unprecedented pressure that thousands of people in the world are subjected to every day in ukraine prefer not remarkably. many clergy, including i know, they remained in ukraine despite the risk to their lives, despite the threats. threats

to their families are a threat. their children. they stayed with their pasta, and they have accomplished and continue to accomplish their feat. perhaps even a confessional martyr on march 22 , 2022, the verkhovna rada of ukraine entered bill. number 72-04, and the ban on the activities of the ukrainian orthodox church, if it is accepted by the state, it will officially select the canonical church. all the remaining temples of the shrine under the new law, orthodox priests and believers who refuse to recognize the new nationalist ukrainian church , will be declared state

criminals. the most important word for europe after the first world war is fear, great fear. it was the despair of the leaders, who could no longer manage by the old methods. here is the idea furs of the twenties and thirties. it is not by chance themselves would most likely put failed to come. here it was necessary to mistake elite. if only someone had these mistakes for no one.

the germans will win, well, everything will go differently. this is what they think about, and hitler two months of house arrest with an electronic bracelet, the court in kiev chose a measure of restraint for the governor of the kiev-pechersk lavra, metropolitan pavel , is accused of inciting religious erosion and justifying russia's actions in the moscow patriarchate, the charges were called trumped-up , the priest himself considers what is happening quote political order. anastasia panka will tell how the hearings went. they say i'm running away. here's a holy cross for you, i want to
