, become ukrainian the orthodox church, and the continuation of this topic, probably a story with a dialogue. the orthodox church of ukraine is open to dialogue with the ukrainian orthodox church. church, i think that it is the ukrainian part or ukrainianness, which, which, hypothetically, we still hope for its presence within the uoc of the moscow patriarchate, it should respond, yes, it should start a movement, in the dialogue regarding the unity of the ukrainian orthodox church . i do not know about joint service to the ukrainian people, about joint service... to wounded widows, children, that is, regarding the common prayer for the victory of ukraine and for the fact that in the end there will be a just peace in ukraine and in the world. this is a request, that is, it is not a negotiation with the moscow patriarchate. the moscow patriarchate, as well as moscow political or business structures, should cease to exist in ukraine, and this is the will and desire of the ukrainian people, the ukrainian state, and the will. of ukrainian churches, but if they are ukrainian churches, if they are not connected with the aggressor

of ukraine on humanitarian and information policy. thank you a few days before the adoption of this law in ukraine, the primate of the orthodox church ofiphany , appealed to metropolitan onufry, the primate of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, and all believers of this church with a call for a dialogue about unity. did anyone respond to the call and what will happen to the clergy and congregation of the ukrainian orthodox church? my colleague bohdan logunov talked about this with ankhendrite abraham lotysh, vicar of the holy assumption kyiv pechersk lavra, who himself... came from the uocp to the orthodox church of ukraine in 2023. let's listen. what will the orthodox church of ukraine do, what will happen to the dioceses, uoc, mp during the next nine months? the law will enter into force in almost a month. the government gives the opportunity for nine months to make up your own mind. of the moscow patriarchate, where they should be, although there was enough time for them to decide long ago, we understand that these people, unfortunately, they still show their position, support for the moscow patriarchate, but

church stability in ukraine. antina, at this time last year, a local council of the orthodox church of ukraine was held, at which ticular, changes were made to the current statute of the orthodox church of ukraine, in particular to the statute on management. of the orthodox church of ukraine. so here is the ecumenical patriarch bartholomew then sent this letter to the leadership of the ocu with a request to announce it at the local council with a request not to make certain changes to the statute, in the patriarch's opinion, which could threaten the unity of orthodoxy in ukraine. why is this letter in the press now? because it is clear that now, after the adoption of the law, someone is calling something. as for the banning of the russian orthodox church in ukraine, i call it about limiting the influence of the russian federation on the religious sphere, i still look much more broadly at this law and say that it is still a law, which concerns national security, the disintegration and deconstruction of the remnants of the russian orthodox church in ukraine is precisely in the interests of ukraine's national securi

it is obvious that who but representatives of ukrainian churches should understand the danger of the existence of the russian of the orthodox church in ukraine as for the orthodox church of ukraine, to be honest, i was surprised by the position of the representatives of this church in these discussions, precisely... they insisted that the provisions on tomos was not included in the draft law, in our opinion, this significantly weakens this draft law , but actually such a position was officially voiced by them, and accordingly we already assume from this that, unfortunately, this provision will not be in the draft law, and accordingly, that is why now so we spend a lot of time looking for some other mechanisms that would stop the activity of the entire network of the russian orthodox church in ukraine, because... we are not talking about one legal entity, we are talking about more than 10,000 such legal entities that actually exist affiliated with the russian orthodox church. well look mr. volodymyr, and here is the key story: forecasting the consequences and preparing certain mechanisms, so we understand that you know whether, for example, t

church, ecclesia, assembly, community, we have nothing in common, if you declare war on us, well, we will be able to win it. thank you for the conversation, svyatoslav skorhot, a cleric of the orthodox church of ukraine was in contact with us in nigensk. on the muscovite region, that is the moscow region, destroyed the last church of the orthodox church of ukraine that existed in russia. by the way, many years ago, when petro poroshenko was the president, if i am not mistaken, they closed the last ukrainian library that was in russia, it was in moscow, in my opinion, it was named after lesya ukrainka, i don't remember sure, the monument to lesya ukrainka, by the way , is still standing, well, like the shevchenko monuments , obviously, but there is nothing ukrainian there, there are no printed publications, nothing, ukrainian books, there is nothing like that, although i by the way, i have the first or second book published by ukraine dreams in ukrainian . it was sold on russian websites for a long time, well, since ancient times, i don’t know if there are, well, i think that there are ukrainian books, of course in russia, but in the sense that there is nothing ukrainian in bookstores or anywhere, the

unity of ukrainians and russians, what do you think the reaction might be putin, who always counted on the russian orthodox church, well , on the branch of the russian orthodox church in ukraine, now it is called the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, will they manage in some way to maintain their influence on some... it comes , can they rename some, well, create some church there call it conventionally speaking the ukrainian church there and leave your eyes in your ties and your bathing suit, yes , first of all, you are right, religion in the concept of the russian world plays one of these educational places, in particular, in the documents, by the way, the russian measure is clearly spelled out in the decrees, orders, in particular of the president of the russian federation, and unfortunately we remember that it was due to the spread of this russian measure that the creation of the russian measure began in the 14th year under the pretext of protecting people who profess russian peace and the russian the language is one of those factors and ending with the 22nd beginning of the great invasion, so you are right, i really have a big ... doubt that it will ju

of the ukrainian orthodox church are members. the cathedral of the russian orthodox church, indeed, during the war, metropolitan nufri never participated in the cathedrals in the synod of the russian orthodox church, no bishop from ukraine, but not a bishop from the uoc, that is, there were those bishops from the uoc who traveled and participated in the occupied territories in the synod of the russian orthodox church, that is , it is actually said in the law, it is directly written there that even if moscow continues to consider them members of its sons. cathedrals, our bishops, metropolitan onuferii, members of his synod, bishops of the ukrainian orthodox church must make appropriate verbal or written statements and write certain appeals to moscow, informing it, and together with it, all world orthodoxy, and all ukrainian society, the ukrainian state, that they are no longer members of either the synod or the council. of the russian orthodox church and are not included in any, ah, administrative, hierarchical or other structures of the church, the aggressor country. that is, it can simply be stated in any form in writing or orally, and that is, it is not difficult work, for this you do not need to make any extra effort

feeling that they can strengthen the regime of intimidation , pressure or even terrorizing representatives above. church authorities of the orthodox church of ukrainewell, i understand that, you know, for the heirs, the bolsheviks, the russians, and this is not the first time, right? well recently, they literally celebrated the anniversary of what happened during the collapse of the soviet union, yes, they killed alexander me, uh, too, he did not share the general position of the church at that time, and - well, for the fact that he led a christian way life, for the fact that he actively preached, for the fact that the soviet authorities did not like it, but... well, he was paid with an ax, that's why you know, when i saw this news and these shots with blood, you know, for some reason i remembered this case, i was still a student then, the handwriting is quite familiar, bishop, how is church life going on in the kherson region, a region that is very close to the temporarily occupied territories, in general , we understand that these are additional challenges, so for everyone. but also for the ukrainian orthodox church of ukraine in particular. yes,

that are used by vadym vladyslavovich, a deacon, for in order to spoil the image of the orthodox church of ukraine thereby slow down the already inevitable process of banning the activities of the moscow patriarchate in ukraine and the subsequent process of unification, joining the orthodox church of ukraine. of the society that still exists today is not in it, vadym vladyslavovich, this is novinsky, this is me explaining to our audience, this is orthodox, which one is from the department today, please, please, let’s have petro oleksiiovych, well, he is, i have a personal relationship with him, it’s clear, i have no doubt, you are very, you now it sounds beautiful in words, let's unite all believers and everyone will live cheerfully and happily, but in fact very often you have to hear that the ban. the pcp can lead to a split in society, because they have many parishioners and many priests, communities do you not see these risks? no, i don't see such risks, i've been talking about them for five years, i'll say it again, we need concrete self-determination: either we join or leave the moscow patria

uoc parishes in various regions were transferred to the autocephalous orthodox church of ukraine. and in may 2022 , a council was held, a meeting at which the uoc made a decision on independence from the russian orthodox church, and representatives of the east, those dioceses that could only participate in the discussions online, and representatives of all other regions, could find those formulations in brotherly love and those decisions, in particular in the changes to the statute governing the ukrainian orthodox church, which would... determine the path of our existence churches in modern conditions and tensions did not grow, uoc churches were searched, secret service employees found pro-russian literature and russian passports there, public sentiments escalated, so the president had to react to the situation. volodymyr zelenskyi spoke about changing policy in the church sphere. and in december 2022, he held a special meeting of the rate. so, first, the national security service. instructed the government to submit to the verkhovna rada a draft law on making it impossible to oper

common sense, i saw with my eyes in the kyiv region communities actively converting to the orthodox church of ukrained this is a very positive example, this is a positive example, but maybe something a little in this matter not too much to hear the voice of the orthodox church of ukraine, i wanted them to initiate... perhaps some cathedral, sir, at least consultations, at least consultations for the beginning, in your opinion, why are they a little yes, not too active, waiting for the go-ahead from authorities, i think that, let's say, there were approaches, because in the orthodox church of ukraine there are bishops who have good contacts, in particular oleksandr drabynko or, well , there is a whole series of bishops. who have good connections in the uocp, and they could act as such integrative figures, but it seems to me that an internal panic within the uocp also began here, because in order to preserve, so to speak, their network, they instilled such fear in some of the clergy that they are afraid of any contact, er... to restore with the orthodox church of ukraine, and i have the feeling that th

the first in ukraine, in terms of the number of clergy, parishes and monasteries in the vatican. the oldest orthodox churchger exists for them, however, in the ocu itself, apparently, they use the same strategy of confessions according to the situation, the head of the orthodox church of ukraine, epiphanius, with an interval of 3 years, went through slippery slopes, like... thomas, neither petro poroshenko nor any other politician, regardless of whether he represents the current government or the opposition, plays any exceptional role in the life of the orthodox church of ukraine. it could cost the swiss his head, it could cost the swiss his head. this is the peculiarity of the holy see, they receive very one-sided information, i was not exiled to russia just like that, again, there is no need to be afraid of this word ecumenism, how much time has passed, the situation has not changed in many respects. international exhibition of equipment raw materials and technologies for pharmaceutical production is being held for the twenty-fifth time. for the first time , almost 500 companies from 15 countries are tak

and the law provides for an easier procedure for switching to the orthodox church of ukraine as the only legitimate canonical orthodox church in ukraine now, or can continue as some separate church separated from russia. i am sure that for the majority of these people, this organizational connection with russia is not fundamental, unfortunately, it is fundamental for the hierarchy of this church, which, in fact, they were. agents of the russian peace in ukraine, unfortunately, they were the fundamental organizational link for many priests, priests of this church, who were actually such a nervous link between moscow and kyiv, therefore the task of our draft law from the very beginning was not to prohibit anyone pray, and tear these organizational ties, i am sure that after breaking these organizational ties, those people for whom prayer to god is really important. will pray to god, regardless of the fact that now it will not be done through moscow. thank you, mr. volodymyr, friends, i would like to remind you that we are working live and today we are conducting a survey during

marks exactly 30 years since the formation of the bohorod diocese, which is part of the orthodox church of ukrainechurch that existed in... . on the territory of the so-called russian federation, it was the holy trinity church, the cathedral church in which metropolitan adrian staryna of bogorodsky presided over the divine liturgy and built it for many years. diaspora, a variety of services were held, not only in the first place, but also spiritual events, which... were united, since the ukrainian diaspora numbered 10 million in the russian federation at that time, and therefore, in most cases, many people, ukrainians, came here get married, baptize your children, confess and partake of the pure heavenly life-giving terrible mysteries of christ. volodyka adrian, who has been building it since the beginning of the 90s, initially built it. epiphany cathedral in the same city of naginsk near moscow region, this church was built in 1997 the security forces of omoniv took over there at the request of lushkov, the former mayor of moscow, and as a result, after capturing this bogoevlen cathedral, the onl

of view. the russian orthodox church, accordingly, those ordinations of priests and deacons that it made after the bishops, they turned out to be invalid. alexander drobinko, metropolitan of peryaslovsky and vishnevsky, orthodox church of ukraineof the state of ukraine, who is integral and independent. i also found the beginning of the nineties. today he is a prominent and prominent face of the new orthodox church of ukraine, the ocu. before that i was in moscow. then alexander still had an a, graduated from the moscow theological academy. since ninety-eight, assistant, and then personal secretary of metropolitan of kiev and ivsia of ukraine vladimir. in the eighteenth year he began a new life as a sub-mafor of constantinople, becoming alexander in the oo. when did the split begin, in fact, in its active phase when it was prohibited. in a distant city, here was her opinion, the opinion of the people, if the active parishioners, they understood, as it were, the difference between the kiev and moscow patriarchates, then the majority of the orthodox, in the countryside, and in the cities, actually, but they did not understand the difference between the kiev patriarchate and the moscow patriarchate, if you look at it from the poin

, orthodox church. of ukraine it was just assumed that people would voluntarily go to this church, and believe me, a lot of people go to the orthodox church of ukraine, which does not say on the door that it is a russian orthodox church, and there is a big deception in this, so that in fact many of these parishes hide that they belong to the russian church, and the parishioners find out about it under such tragic conditions, when these po... moskovskyi refuses to sing the praises of ukrainian heroes, and if you see the statistics, a lot of parishes have switched to of the orthodox church of ukraine exactly when this deception was revealed, when people realized that the popes were simply lying, not to mention the fact that they ideologically belong there to the metropolitanate of moscow, and i want to remind you that there is a decision of the constitutional court of ukraine, which very clearly records that... if this church, yes , the so-called church, has a metropolitan in moscow, it should honestly write in its name "the russian church"

russians, what do you think the reaction of putin, who always counted on to the russian orthodox church, well, to the branch of the russian orthodox church in ukraine, now it is called the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, will they somehow manage to maintain their influence in some parishes, can they rename some, well, create some church, name it there, relatively speaking ... there is a ukrainian church there and leave your connections and family like that. well , first of all, you are right, religion in the concept of the russian world plays one of such prominent places, in particular in documents, by the way , the russian world is clearly spelled out in regulations, orders, in particular of the president of the russian federation, and unfortunately, we remember, it was precisely because of the spread of this russian peace that the creation began in the 14th year under the pretext of protecting people who profess the russian peace and the russian language from each other from such factors. and ending on the 22nd the beginning of the great invasion, so you are right, i really doubt very much that it will just fall apart, more

church of ukraine, because this is a serious story, and one thing leads to another . i absolutely agree with you, i think that precisely here the ukrainian churches, both the orthodox churchnd the ukrainian greek catholic church, as traditional ukrainian churches, should be very actively involved. in this process in order to give these faithful, once russian orthodox church, to find another church where they could realize themselves as ukrainian believers. i know that a huge part of these faithful simply remained in this structure due to inertia, and the problem was actually not so much the faithful of the russian orthodox church, but, after all, in its hierarchy, in its structure, in the priests who had a direct connection with moscow, often even performed. any instructions from moscow, including those aimed at undermining ukrainian defense capabilities, this is far from it, it does not apply to all the faithful of this church, so i i am convinced that a large part of them will absolutely voluntarily make a choice in favor of the ukrainian churches, others will consider loyalty to moscow, to moscow more important than to christ, it is obvious that it is quite possible th

think someone will join the ukrainian orthodox church churches in ukraine, someone, so to speak, will switch to some illegal status, someone will look for forms of self-organization, well, for example, its patriarch filaret broke with the orthodox church in ukraine and created their religious organization, that is, there will be some other religious organizations that will insist on their understanding of canonicity there, something else, it will be a long and obviously difficult process, but the main thing is that we will no longer have a church that will be subordinate to moscow, but what will be the reaction to your opinion, from the side of russia, because the russian orthodox church has always believed that... everything that is on the territory of ukraine is originally russian, and theirs, including the church, and all these parishes, they are long, have controlled all these structures for a long time, and probably still partially control, both for putin and for russians in general, the existence of the russian orthodox church, this, this, this is a very important element of their policy towards ukraine. of course, of course, for them it i

occupied, and by the way, one of the key issues was that the church itself supported all kinds of invaders. recognizing that they are part of the orthodox church of ukraineorthodox church, the russian orthodox church, therefore, the situation is precisely in kha in kharkiv, i think that there will be no split, this law is very necessary, because society does not understand how we are in the third year war to this day, in some churches of the kharkiv region, by the way, kirill gondyaev is commemorated as the patriarch of moscow and they do it, well, they do it constantly even during these 2.5 years of war, we know about it, but uh, for example, to split society , in what way, by some kind of force force methods for today, well, today and in any case, they are not needed, it should be done with love and should be with the understanding that the time has come and it is simply necessary... the will of the state , to make a ban, the leaders themselves, i i think, from the head of the kharkiv diocese, and concluding that this is what concerns the kharkiv diocese, from the head of the kharkiv diocese, and all the clergy will be happy to go to the orthodox churc

orthodox church, who in turn ordained other priests, that is, all the bishops of the ukrainian... autocephalous orthodox church, which in 2018 became part of the ocu, that is , the orthodox church of ukraineved by ukraine in 2019, have on it’s like the grace of chekalin’s welcome. why do we tell a person about this? listen to his biography: he was born in tola, tried to take posture in... in 1988 he was expelled from the russian orthodox church completely, and why, why was he excommunicated, and in 1986 he was arrested for pedophilia, and after udo, that is, suspended early. liberation, returned to his native tula, from where he deceitfully took a nine-year-old boy to australia, well, i think there is no need to explain why he did this. in australia, vincent berg, the name viktor chikalin took for himself in australia, was we were convicted of fraud again for sexual abuse of minors, that is, this man who never received either ordination in jerei, or ordination as a bishop, who was excommunicated, a fraudster, a criminal, a pedophile, stood as a whist. first of the schismatic ukrainian autocephalous orthodox church, and then of the orthodox church of ukraine, it was he who ordained, albeit

, orthodox church of ukraine precisely assumed that parishes would voluntarily transfer. on the door of which it is not hung that it is a russian orthodox church, and there is a great deception in this, because in fact many of these parishes hide that they belong to the russian church, and the parishioners will find out about it under such tragic conditions, when these moscow priests refuse to sing for ukrainian heroes there, and if you ... see the statistics, a lot of parishes switched to the orthodox church of ukraine exactly when this deception was revealed , when people realized that the popes are simply lying, not to mention that they ideologically belong there to the metropolitanate of moscow, i want to remind you that there is a decision of the constitutional court of ukraine, which very clearly states that if this church, yes yes the so-called church has a metropolitan in moscow, it should or... write "russian church" in its name, and then, so that people could see what was happening, i think the situatio

kursk region, the deployment of the armed forces of ukraine on the territory of the region, and now more decisions about bans of the russian orthodox churcht they simply put a cross on, well, at least in the near future, even possible ones. hypothetical negotiations of advisers or third assistants in qatar or elsewhere in another country? so of course now... in this situation, this prospect is, so to speak, remote from any negotiations, although the situation on the battlefield continues to be at an impasse, so to speak, and so our offensive on the kurshchyna simply leveled our chances to a certain extent and does not allow putin to speak from a position of strength, in those conditions when russian troops slowly, but still about... in donbas, but here i think that this is the pause taken by the government in the person of the president and the leadership of the verkhovna rada and the servants of the people, i mean in support of this church law, it was largely still related to what was expected, obviously, both by our leadership and by our western partners, with whom we should do so. coordinate their steps, so to speak, and which are an i

for the numbers if you think that after the adoption of this law... the activities of the russian orthodox church in ukraine may stop here is this law that was passed today, it is better known as the law on banning the activities of the russian orthodox church, and today in the second reading during consideration in the verkhovna rada, this law was supported by 265 people's deputies, which provides for this law, this law. implies that the russian orthodox church should be banned as a religious organization. the activities of all organizations affiliated with the russian orthodox church will be terminated according to a clear procedure, which will include an investigation, an order for the execution of the law and a court injunction. the russian orthodox church and its affiliated structures will not be able to use state and communal property. transition of communities to ukrainian. of the local orthodox church will be simplified, and actually this transition can last up to 9 months, that is, this is a very long transition period from the conditional existence of the uoc mp before the transition of the parish

of svoboda ranok. we will now talk about the transition, about the churches further on this broadcast, about the transition of individual parishes from the uoc mmp to the orthodox church of ukraineongoing, as we talked about, some communities do not dare to make this transition because they doubt its legality, although recently, in april, this year , the supreme court of ukraine issued the same ruling. the decision by which he recognized the legality of the transition from the uocmp to ocu, however, some representatives of the uocmp are against transitions and mergers, the ukrainian church of the moscow patriarchate, quote: works only on separation, this opinion was expressed to me by the vicar of the holy assumption kyiv-pechersk lavra avraami, and he noted that the dialogue between the uocmp and the orthodox church of ukraine there is no well, at present there is no such dialogue, because the representatives of the moscow patriarchate are openly public. they declare, talk about the fact that they do not need anything, no association, some people put forward their demands, and of course, in this direction, they themselves block this process. the orthodox church of ukraine, as o

orthodox church. in contrast , others say that 8371 turned out to be completely democratic. the law prohibiting the activities of the russian orthodox church, as an organization that poses a threat to... the national security of ukrainerequires this the convention on the protection of human rights, article 9/1, this is required by the constitution of ukraine, article 35-36, where it is directly stated, there is an explanation of the constitutional court, which directly obliges the ukrainian government, the ukrainian authorities, each of us, to protect the national security from the interference of hostile organizations, there will be no closure, these are court procedures, these are scientific examinations, these are collegial decisions. however, no matter what the problem was, as soon as the parliament decided not to consider church issues, its work stopped. people's deputies of the european solidarity faction, the voice of the trust and future group blocked three'. in addition to the military bills, which are directly related to the state's defense capability, our political force, and called to join our initiative, other political forces will not be allowed to vote, after the conciliation council with the leaders o

city of naginsk, in the moscow region, they demolished the church of the holy trinity, it is the only church of the orthodox church of ukrainerussian federation, and this was reported by the cleric of the orthodox church of ukraine, svyatoslav skorokhod, in the fourth week of great lent, the last spiritual barricade. the ukrainian spirit in russia has been destroyed. previously, the ukrainian library was closed in the swamps and the only organization of the ukrainian diaspora was liquidated, the priest recalled. well , that's how the russian federation is, which always tries to demonstrate that it is an orthodox state destroys orthodox churches already on its territory, not only launches rockets and mortars at the churches that are standing. on the territory of ukraine, and these churches are already being demolished, if this church belongs to the orthodox church of ukraine, it is a real shame, there is nothing to say here. friends, during our broadcast, i will remind you that we are conducting a survey and asking you whether it is worth redirecting the funds from the single telethon to the armed forces of ukraine. yes, no,

have vladyka hmetrofan, a very powerful leader, and over the years, i must say that the orthodox church of ukrainethe kharkiv region is developing and thriving very strongly, and as for the ukrainian orthodox church, they are ready to to convert to the orthodox church of ukraine, because today the population does not accept it. the russian world does not accept prayer in the russian language, no perceives the very fundamental thing that this church is in the bosom and under the leadership of the russian orthodox church, already today, on the third day of the war , it is already clear to everyone that the church in ukraine must be united, must be ukrainian, for that we have tomos, for that we have all the possibilities, and the decision on... the ban, the so -called law on the ban, for which, by the way, we, i have always been in favor of it, our deputies have always been in favor of it, and constantly pushed for this decision was made as soon as possible, this is a late decision, because, well, almost the war has been going on for three years, and we still cannot figure out whether we need a struc

during the war and freedom of religion in ukraine are told by anna kostyuchenko and pavel sohodolskyi. mykhail predko, against the priests of the church of st. nicholas, orthodox church of ukraine in the village of khotiv-obiv district, kyiv region. and in addition, the chief chaplain of the state border service. countries. his two older brothers are fighting at the front. every month, the ancestor goes to the front not only to perform chaplain duties, but also as a volunteer. we constantly carry everything from simple goodies to cars, quadcopters, and thermal imaging cameras. well, ours the parish cooperates with other parishes of the orthodox church of ukraine, with foundations. we collect a lot of things, but we recently brought in tablets for the third and stormtroopers. tank brigades special tablets that are needed for tankers, and before that we imported cars and cars, imported a quadrocopter, but now we are planning to return to liman, the national guard asked us. among the regular parishioners of the church of st. nicholas in khotov, the founder of the local voluntary territorial defense formation, former border guard ihor hryb. at one time he was 5 he

with the kursk region, the entry of the armed forces of ukraine into the territory of this oblast, and now the decision to ban the russian orthodox churchin ukraine, that they simply put a cross on, well, at least in the near future, possible even hypothetical negotiations of advisers or something. third assistants in qatar or elsewhere in another country? yes, of course , now, in this situation, this is, so to speak, a remote prospect of any negotiations, although, so to speak, the situation on the battlefield continues to remain at a dead end, and so our offensive on kurshchyna would simply to some extent leveled our chances and does not... does not allow putin should speak from a position of strength, in those conditions when russian troops are slowly but still advancing in the donbas, but here i think that this is the pause taken by the authorities in the person of the president and the leadership of the verkhovna rada and the servants of the people in implied in the support of this church law, it was largely still connected with the fact that... expected, obviously, both our leadership and our western partners, with whom we must, s

the church is the least of all a legal organization, the church is a community of believers, and the ukrainian orthodox church unites the largest community of practicing, believing people in ukraine, who visit the church every week, pray, have their own religious practices, you need to ask them for... , how they will react in the next nine months to this law-making that we just saw in the ukrainian parliament. the church is a legal organization and in any case you have to somehow fulfill or not fulfill the law, that's why this question was asked. well , it seems to me that this law does not provide for our consent or non-consent to the implementation or non -implementation of the law. i would just like to point out. that this law on religious organizations affiliated with foreign centers, such as the ukrainian orthodox church, according to all documents that are legitimate in ukraine, is not affiliated with any foreign center, unlike, by the way, other religious organizations operating in ukraine. and that's probably why the people's deputy. when they presented their draft law to her, when they tried to convince her of the need for its adoption, they avoided in every possible way

adaptation of church institutions to the form of the state, their respect for the borders of this country. that is why it was so important to recognize the independence of the orthodox church of ukraine. today we see the importance of the volume: ukraine has its own orthodox, separate church. note that... and this is the essence of the matter, which concerns the politics and political involvement of the moscow church. i'm not talking about other things, for example, official declarations of support for putin, direct involvement, declaration of a kind of holy war. infiltration of the church by agents of the russian special services. this has been confirmed in a hundred ways since soviet times, but one of the... simplest arguments is the principle of the functioning of christian churches, i have the right to that, frog within its framework, a new structural one arose. a state is formed, it has the right to claim the creation of a separate church structure within its borders. in 1991, ukraine declared its independence. the ukrainian state began with the declaration of independence in 1991. ukraine declared its independence. there is already a separate structure of the catholic church fo

cultural life of chernihiv, and as for the service, it was sent by representatives of the orthodox church of ukrainen the church, but near the church, and this is the first time precisely, because this is the transfiguration cathedral, from the ecclesiastical point of view, it is dedicated to and has such a name to this very feast of the transfiguration of the lord, and for the first time it actually took place there under... the auspices of the ocu, this very church now, it has the status of a museum, that is, after the right of lease was terminated, due to court decisions, the right of lease was terminated for the uoc, the so-called ukrainian orthodox church in this church, so now the church has the status of a museum, it is a part, in fact, it is the property of the state, the state has this right to make such a decision, of course, and... on the balance sheet it is this temple of the reserve, the architectural and historical reserve of the national chernihiv ancient city, as well as several other temples on the territory of chernigov. now it is very important to restore this temple, because afte

communities to... voluntarily join, disconnect from the russian orthodox church and join the ukrainian orthodox church, to the orthodox church of ukraine, if this is not done, then everyone can in fact be an active participant in the process, that is, write an appropriate appeal, pay attention, and then there will be appropriate consequences, but as they said about it earlier, as they warned about it earlier, that we are ready to the fact that there will be protests, and some kind of processions, and people will speak, that is, people can simply be controlled, i'm talking about ordinary parishioners, they can simply be used. in this process in order for them to be able to they insisted, spoke out, asked to continue, to allow them to continue to exist in ukraine, but we understand that it cannot continue like this , and for how long they dragged on with this draft law, and it is good that by the day of independence it was managed to be voted in the version that is , and eventually it came into effect, as we can see, so far we have not heard of any. transition, but currently it's only four days from when the law went into effect, so ther

society, let's say, curiosities, in general, i read the other day in on the facebook of the orthodox church of ukraine, which i am just trying to spread this meaning as much as possible, because the orthodox church of ukraine tells us, dear ukrainian women, what we want, and if we want to want it... without headscarves and in pants, then we can do it, it's not a sin, we won't burn in hell for it, strangely enough, because you know, some priests, especially of the moscow patriarchate, not only talked about it, and in general there was a long enough opinion and continues to exist, that women can come to church only with with a covered head and there in skirts, despite the fact that it is not there higher. and below, and by the way, when i was in one of the churches, one of the temples, i was given a special skirt, because my dress was at knee level, and it should have been even lower. so, the orthodox church of ukraine says, despite the fact that there is no such prohibition in our church, they say, and they repeat the opinion that is heard quite often from, from my point of view, adequate... churchmen

“all of ukraine must be part of russia, only then will we ensure the unfettered existence of our russian orthodox church appearance to the way she always had, being more often a saint with a part of holy russia. thank you very much, thank you for being with us, but we hope that the church schism in ukraine will end soon, and bright times of unity of faith will definitely come." and for the full conversation with the american official, watch on our social networks, all the best, see you, hello, dear tv viewers, you are watching the triggers lab podcast, its leading psychologist, tatyana krasnovskaya, psychologist and psychotherapist sergei nasebyan, is with us. our guest is yulia, hello, yulia, hello, tell us what you came to us with? i came with such an interesting request, i don’t know what to call it, it’s a diagnosis or my fears or my beliefs, in general, it seems to me that i have a childish position, that is, i seem to always expect from someone that some of my questions will be resolved, for example, there is a job search, that one of my friends will offer me something, yeah. or, for example, my m

church schism. undoubtedly, the same spirits of malice are under heaven. first, let's look at how ukraine ended up under the amaphora of the russian orthodox church. church, n the system suddenly broke down. if today someone came from the so -called orthodox church of ukraine to the moscow patriarchate, he would have to be baptized again and get married again in the moscow patriarchate, since the russian church does not recognize the holy sacraments of the so-called orthodox church of ukraine. the institute of europe of the russian academy of sciences specializes in religious studies.

legislative plan on the part of our parliamentarians, but also on the part of church structures, the orthodox church of ukraineeek catholic church, which would be ready to accept part of the clergy who would like to break away from moscow, but due to one or another. reasons, maybe he is afraid, or maybe he is worried about the fact that he may end up without a parish and so on, but if you take the number of uocp parishes in ukraine, it will work. very and a very large, i.e., complex decision, whether, for example, there were other feedbacks from our specifically ukrainian religious structures, you are absolutely right about the fact that this process is more complicated than just the adoption of one law or the activity of the security service of ukraine. undoubtedly, the orthodox church of ukraine is local, it should be ready to accept these people, those who are not related to russian. which are not directly a russian agency, but i will say that this process is taking place in one way or another, because, well, you understand that at the time of the declaration of independence, no ukrainian church existed at

country that influences the ukrainian orthodox church, ooc, mp , in that number through the russian orthodox church, but in this case, the security service of ukrainenfortunately, how many criminal cases were initiated against priests in... the russian orthodox church, taking into account the fact that in the first year of russia's invasion of ukraine, we saw how the churches and monasteries of the russian orthodox church were used, er, by these russian, er, organized orthodox structures in order to, or hide there, er -er, russian special services, who... as it was on donetsk people were hiding in the premises of the church of the ukrainian ukrainian orthodox church, and of course there are a lot of questions about how this whole procedure will take place, and in what way the branch of the russian orthodox church, which has always been the ukrainian orthodox church of moscow , will disappear from the map of ukraine patriarchate. perhaps these and other questions will be answered by maksym rozumny, political expert, doctor of political sciences, mr. maksym, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today, good evening, but zelenskyi names the

documents more than 90 facts, including attacks and persecution of representatives of the orthodox church of ukraine, jehovah's witnesses, muslims, protestants and other religious minorities in the temporarily occupied crimea. iryna solomko learned about the details of the submission of uvain jordesh, a british lawyer, managing partner of the international legal foundation global rights complaints, who was involved in the work on the submission. why do you focus on religious persecution in occupied crimea in this presentation? collected in the submitted evidence and their analysis strongly suggests that there were nine war crimes and seven crimes against humanity, persecution and persecution of religious groups - these are what we call umbrella crimes, they contain many different criminal acts. we recorded detentions, torture during detention, murders, displacement and deportation. so the persecution of religious groups in crimea is a very serious crime. the facts recorded in the submission are terrible. it is difficult to read about what is happening to the religious organizations, groups and indiv

domes in the poltava region, in an abandoned building of an evening school, a single church of the orthodox church of ukraine was created for the entire community. in the karlov community, more and more locals refuse to visit the churches of the moscow patriarchate and come to serve at father dmytro. he is the only priest of the orthodox church of ukraine in that country area anna morozova will tell how the parish was founded. lord, absorb, thirteen people gathered in a small room of the parish of the holy apostles peter and paul, the orthodox church of ukraine. this is the only ocu church for the entire 20,000-strong karliv community, which was opened last year for the faithful, including elena's family, who visits the church almost every sunday. my family and i started visiting this temple last summer. for a long time we visited other temples, but we came to the time when it was really just our family and three people from the family are fighting, that's why, in principle, the heart called and we came to this mr. dmitri at the fedorivska church, but thank god, we have our own church. abbot father dmytro is

from the children of the ukrainian defenders were also met by the head of the orthodox church of ukraine, blessed. metropolitan epiphany and presented gifts from the parish of the ukrainian cathedral of st. andrew in washington. we thank everyone who is working, who is fighting, who is praying, in this difficult time, and we believe that we will definitely win. the orthodox church of ukraine, together with its friends from the territory, will support children from socially disadvantaged groups for many years. but in recent years , the children whose fathers are now protecting us often come to our holidays our country, and those whose fathers or relatives died, and we must support them, we must cheer them up. such was the news at this time, our team is working so that you will see the updated news release at 11 o'clock, and then my colleagues continue the broadcast, dear friends, two more hours ahead in the company of andriy saichuk, lesya bukluk, congratulations to all, who just joined and who has been watching us since the morning, thank you to all those who have already donated this mo

supreme council of ukraine, on the eve of the celebration of the independence day of ukraine, the verkhovna rada passed. historic decision to ban the activities of the russian orthodox churchn ukraine. what do you think about this decision and its importance for the development of the country. i remember i remember how some people laughed at the importance of ukraine's ecclesiastical independence from moscow, and i believe that it was one of the most important decisions of the last decade. i consider that if you were the last one, it was one of the most important. every one anyone interested in the history of the russian empire knows how important an element in moscow's approach to conquered countries is the use of the orthodox church to build a sphere of influence. the russian church actually became an element of influence on ukrainian society, of silent propaganda. these are not only public sermons or official documents, often they are simply whispered information, gossip, disagreement with the actions of the ukrainian state, disagreement with actions. ukrainian churches that are patriotic and stand on the principles of human rights, i mean the orthodox church of ukraine

well, of course, there should be a ukrainian church in ukraine, and a russian church should be in russia. 65% of ukrainians believe that the russian orthodox church and moscow patriarch kirill encourage and support russia's aggression against ukraine. 47% believe that representatives of the uoc -mp spread russian propaganda and justify russia's actions. 34 are convinced that the priests of the uoc... are cooperating with the occupying russian authorities, they lined up cars under the church fence, supported them with military equipment, and at that moment father viktor came out of the church with some man, well, not in a typical uniform, well, i understand that these are the special services, and he told us that we were detained, that... a special check would be conducted on us, this it will take about a day or two, at this point the father said, place the people. do we have a chance to solve the issue of historical scale? yes, if the parliament finally considers in the second reading the bill on banning the activities of the russian orthodox church. churches operate under the cover of the so- called uocmp, this is unheard of, but on the t

this racism, russian fascism, but they are now taking over and activating a branch of the russian orthodox church in ukrainehough, although, in the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, which until 2022 did not renounce ties from. russian orthodox church, which held a council there only in may 22 and, as it were, declared some kind of independence. so, the uoc called the statement of the russian orthodox church about the holy war as contrary to the basic principles of christian morality and distanced itself from the ideology of the russian world. i will quote what was written in onufry's press service. in... the ukrainian orthodox church does not support and distance itself from the ideology of the russian world. moreover, the attitude of our church to this was publicly expressed a long time ago by his beatitude metropolitan onufriy of kyiv and all ukraine. we are not building a russian peace, we are building god's world. well you see how the onuphrius of this was closed. that he is building god's world in ukraine, not russian peace, but from 2014 to 2022, onufriy was a member of the synod o

society, let's say curiosities, i in general , the other day i read on the facebook page of the orthodox the church of ukraine is a great post, i'm just trying to spread this meaning. as much as possible, because the orthodox church of ukraine tells us, dear ukrainian women, what we want, and if we want to go to church without headscarves and in pants, then we can do it, it is not a sin, we will not burn in hell for it , strangely enough, because you know, some priests, especially of the moscow patriarchate, not only talked about it, and in general there was a long enough... for a long time and it continues to be the opinion that women can only come to church with their heads covered and there in skirts, despite the fact that it is not above the knee, but below. and by the way, when i was in one of the churches from the temples , they gave me a special skirt, because my dress was at the level of my knees, and it was necessary to be even lower, so the orthodox church of ukraine says, once again, that in... none in our church there is such concern.
