i can proudly say about the active laymen of the ukrainian greek catholic church. and we are happy that we, as a church, are changing, we are growing. we are looking for new ways, new forms, how to be a church, how to serve god and people, in the latest circumstances. we are happy. having wise, active, conscious, responsible lay people in our church, on whom you can rely, and today the ukrainian greek catholic church is not some ee cold hierarchical structure, it is a living network community, which today covers the network of presence ... many countries of the world, we would really like to share our experience of church life, even with our orthodox brothers. don't be afraid, don't be afraid to be active, your fathers can't be your slave owners, don't slave in front of spiritual officials, be able to be open, free, only then you will be able to change that church, the children you consider yourself to be, i think that the measure... ordinary orthodox believers today can be a catalyst for changes in those in those churches. unfortunately, it so happened that russia

is worth hearing, on on the spresso tv channel, we will talk with the head of the ukrainian greek catholic church, i congratulate you, glory to jesus christ, glory forever, independence day, plus the third year of the full-scale invasion of the russian federation, if at the beginning of the invasion there was a tendency that people ran to god, these are understandable, understandable things, many people came, some converted, came with prayers, came with requests, now there is such a trend that somewhere people maybe... either they don't come as often, or they pray less, or maybe someone loses hope, or there are those who do you observe something like this, if we talk about your church or maybe in other churches, having, having communication with your brothers and sisters in the faith, and how to explain it, or how to keep the patience and hope that should be present for such the difficult situation that exists today, well, we are like a bunch of people. pastors have our finger on the pulse of our people, really, or another comparison, we listen carefully to the heartbeat of our people, and i can

independence only, only, only appeared like the sun rising from the horizon, the ukrainian greek-catholic church came out of the underground, which became, as it were , this stone that hit those, clay feet, that... soviet colossus, it just fell apart. we understood that independence, our state is god's gift, a gift, as god's answer to these centuries-old struggles of our people, which we call today national-liberation, the crown of these struggles was the martyrdom of the ukrainian greco-olod church, in particular during the... communist regime, so the people thanked, but this gift had to be kept, we all saw that this state, which was born after the collapse of the soviet union, is still a post-soviet state, that freedom is a multi-meaning concept, it has not only some legal meaning. or political the first is moral. in christian philosophy and theology, we are always used to talk about freedom in this double sense: freedom from and freedom for. when we talk about our national freedom, we are talking about the independence of the beginning, this is freedom from scratch. freedom from those neo-col

and today, the ukrainian greek-catholic church is not some cold hierarchical structure, it is a livingetwork community, which today covers many countries with that network of presence world, we would very much like to share our experience of church existence, even with our orthodox ones. brothers, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, be active, your fathers can't be your slave owners, don't be slavish in front of spiritual officials, be able to be open, free, only then you will be able to change that church, children, which you consider yourself to be. i think that lay people, ordinary orthodox believers, can be a catalyst for changes in these churches today. unfortunately, it so happened that russia tried to subdue those post-soviet countries with help corruption, the same thing happened in ukraine, they believed that it was political corruption. financing of various pro-russian political organizations and movements that were engaged in the restoration of various historical so -called events, this was soft power, the kind of soft power with which they wanted to colonize anew, including u

personality of joseph the blind lies in the fact that he took over the leadership of the ukrainian greek-catholic church in a song metropolitan andrii sheptytsky in rather difficult times, in times of persecution and persecution, when our church was, was directly in the underground, and actually the greatness of the personality of the patriarch... slypogo is valuable because by writing such books, reading about him, learning, in fact, some undisclosed details from his life, we can draw for ourselves an example of this faith, stability, indomitability and boundless love. today is the last competitive day at the paralympics in paris, the day before our athletes managed to win five more gold awards. victor didukh was the best in table tennis, ukrainian judokas also won two medals in... the highest category. anastasia harnyk triumphed among women in the weight category over 70 kg, and oleksandr nazarenko won in the final among men under 90 kg. swimmer andriy trusov and athlete ihor tsvitov also became paralympic champions. in the medal standings, the ukrainian national team ranks seventh. we have 21 gold me

personality of joseph the blind lies in the fact that he took over the management of the ukrainian greek-catholic church in the song of metropolitan andrii sheptytskyi in rather difficult times, in times of persecution and persecution, when our church was directly in the underground. and actually the greatness of patriarch joseph's personality slypogo is valuable because writing such books, reading about him, learning, actually. some undisclosed details from his life, we can draw for ourselves an example of this faith, stability, indomitability and boundless love. the sinkhole of deportation of ukrainians in 1944-51, forced removal began in september 1944, when the soviet union and poland concluded an agreement on the mutual exchange of population. according to the institute of national remembrance , about 700,000 ukrainians are from lemkivshchyna, netsyannia, kholmshchyna, lyubachivshchyna, and the western region. boykivshchyna were forcibly evicted from their homes and transported to the ussr. these were deportations with repression and forced confiscation of property. instead , almost 800,000 poles a

from ukraine, that is, it was the evening of the 24th, and who first helped the ukrainian greek catholic churchian communities that already actually organized. the transfer of people practically from the polish border and to places of assignment or to places in large cities in germany, that is, to say that they are separated, no, but the worldview of these two, or let's call these two groups, is completely different, and probably their communication, probably also a little otherwise, that is, we were conscious, because if we were to even touch on the topic of what the diaspora is, then we probably need to spill a little... because the people who came here, we are probably even this one from us, or shall we say yes, calls from the ukrainian government for self-identification, for self-identification the question of language is included, how do i identify myself, and here, for sure, this is the moment when you come here and speak russian, how the ukrainian community perceives you, that is one thing, you are all from ukraine, we are all the same, but externally for... a german who hears russian on

ukraine, they are something not very given to an underground existence, and this is not the greek catholic church, which existed for decades in the soviet union and underground, and this is not the evangelical churches, which were chased for a very long time, they are used to comfort, they are used to integration into such ruling circles, so i think this one habit will speed up their transition from the moscow church to the ukrainian one, they just don't yet understand that it is not irreversible, they still hope... this will be repeated, some will go to tanks, some will go to negotiations, and when it becomes clear that there will be neither, nothing else, well, then i think they will think about ways of transition, well, interestingly, one more literally short question is not on this topic, there is a concept of canceling the dpa this final certification, and not just in the fourth grade, and the ninth and the 11th, eh, how seriously, actually, how ready our parliamentarians should make such a decision, because we understand. that this can affect the quality of education? well, i have to say th

collect financial assistance for obtaining a house and military operations in orthodox and greek-catholic churchesll, the collection takes place when, most often, it is when some festivals take place, then we collect funds there, and sometimes we are invited to the church for sunday service, then we go there. local businesses also continue to support the boys. one of the supermarkets, for example, partially supplies the house with food. volunteers take care of the leisure time of the wounded, rada dubashynski is responsible for this. she became a volunteer after the beginning of the great war. i try to take the boys to different cities, show them america, tell them american history, go to washington, new york, just introduce them to americans. the council adds, involves its sons, who were already born in the usa, in volunteering, and also organizes meetings of the ukrainian military with american schoolchildren. we try to introduce as many american children as possible to the military, so that when the war will end, attention to ukraine has not faded into the background, because one of these child

, so i advise ukrainians in russia to live underground, as it were let's say the ukrainian greek-catholic churchived under the soviet era, so it must be lived now. there will be, there will be a change of regime, i am convinced of this, as when it will happen, i don't know, but be yourself, stick to ukrainians. please tell me, by the way, about ukrainianness and citizenship, i cannot but ask you about this law on plural citizenship, about which there is so much discussion, but it is not under consideration, but it is not approved, how much are you interested at all adoption of this law, as a representative of the ukrainian world community, and as this law should look like, we have been calling for a formula of multiple or dual citizenship for many years and even before zelensky's presidency, because it simply reflects the reality, the reality is that the majority of ukrainians living abroad, well, let's say before the full-scale invasion, have the citizenship of another country , that is, it is a reality today, but they did it, well, theoretically, it is illegal, and this law has... applies to p

are in the church that obeys the vatican, this is essentially such a different remake of the greek catholic churchnly on lebanese soil, and hezbollah is an organization, you say, the idea of ​​the shiite world, that is, iran, the shiites of iraq, the shiites of lebanon, the shiites of bahrain, it is a completely separate state the structure is, so to speak, supranational. state, which should control these states where shiites live. why, by the way, iran still has a claim on azerbaijan, and they show it all the time, trying to somehow strengthen their position there, because in azerbaijan , part of the population is azerbaijani shiites, there is a sunni population, and there are also a lot of shiites. well, here is the answer to your question, so if you are not interested in the state interests of lebanon, but are interested in the state interests of iran, then maybe you can donate in lebanese... the security of lebanon as such in order to strike a bigger blow at israel, that is, for hasan, they screwed up, lebanon is just such a weapon, lebanon itself, with the help of which he wants to harm israe

community, that is why i advise ukrainians in russia to live underground, as, say, the ukrainian greek-catholic churchthe soviet era, the same must be lived now, will be, there will be a change in the regime, i am convinced of this, as when it will happen is not known, but be yourself, stick to ukrainians, please tell me, by the way, about ukrainianness. about citizenship, i cannot but ask you about this law on multiple citizenship, about some kind of discussion, but it is not as if under consideration, but it will not be adopted, how interested are you in the adoption of this law, as a representative of the ukrainian world community, and how this law should look like? for many years, even before zelenskyi's presidency , we have been calling for a formula for the plural or dual citizenship, because it's just a reflection of reality. the reality is that the majority of ukrainians living abroad, well, let's say, before the full-scale invasion, have the citizenship of another country, that is, this is the reality today, but they did it, well , theoretically, illegally, and this laws should be adapted to

people who are in the church that obeys the vatican, it is basically such another remake of the greek-catholic churchon the levant land, but... hezbollah is an organization that lives by the idea of ​​the shiite world, i.e. iran, shiites of iraq, shiites of lebanon, shiites of bahrain, it is a completely separate state structure, so to speak, supranational, supranational , which should control these states, where the shiites live. why, by the way, iran still has a claim on azerbaijan, and they show it like this all the time, trying to somehow strengthen their position there. because in azerbaijan , part of the population is azerbaijani shiites, there is a sunni population, and there are also many shiites, here is a question relevant to you, so if you are not interested in the state interests of lebanon, but are interested in the state interests of iran, then maybe you can sacrifice lebanese security for lebanon as such to strike a greater blow against israel, that is, for hasan after all, lebanon is just such a weapon, lebanon itself, with the help of which he wants to harm israel. that's all, and if

community, that's why i advise ukrainians in russia to live underground. as, say, the ukrainian greek-catholic church lived under the soviet times, the same must be lived now, there will be, there will be a change of regime, i am convinced of this, as when it will happen, i don’t know, but be, stick to ukrainians, tell me, whatever please, by the way, about ukrainianness and citizenship, i cannot but ask you about this law plural citizenship, about some kind of discussion, but it is not under consideration, but it is not adopted, how much are you interested in the adoption of this law at all. as a representative of the ukrainian world community, what should this law look like? for many years, even before zelenskyi's presidency, we called for a formula of multiple or dual citizenship, because this simply reflects reality, the reality is that the majority of ukrainians living abroad, well, let's say, before a full-scale invasion, have the citizenship of another country, that is, this is reality today, but... they they made it theoretically illegal, and the laws should adapt to people, to society, and n

statements, you can hear... before the ukrainian elections from the head of the ukrainian greek catholic church, or is it was it for blessed lubomir husar or for svyatoslav shevchuk now, the church always calls on its faithful who are citizens of this state to vote, but does not specify which political forces, instead suggests using one's own conscience, and as far as i remember, such a phrase about the lesser evil sounded the same way in the context of the ukrainian elections . the relationship between popes and american politics is always complicated, it's not just about pope francis, and john paul ii had disputes with, say, bush, he supported some things, but he condemned, say, the invasion of iraq, so pope francis, if we're talking about current situation, he basically outlined the division that exists in american catholicism, because the american catholic church today is very much divided within itself, actually. not on the basis of different political preferences, half for republicans, half for democrats, but the pope basically outlined what exists in american catholicism, he did not say

he was the voice of the greek catholic church in western europe, helped metropolitan andrey.tytskyi and united young people around faith. archbishop ivan buchko from kytlian made a significant contribution to the spiritual life of our country. to the 50th anniversary of his day. death in lviv will honor the memory of the priest, so on september 21 in the family village of vladyki tarasivtsi, a memorial table will be opened, and on september 29 in the st. george's cathedral , ivan buchka will be honored with a performance by the honored academic trembita chapel. the events are organized by the organizational committee consisting of deputies of the lviv regional council and priests. father buchko cared a lot about... ukrainian identity itself, and apart from those cases in which he would really be a grozian act, to raise the pope in the middle of the night to prevent, in fact, the extradition for execution of people who defended ukraine, and he was the one who documented the pacification by the polish government of ukraine. and for that he received, let's say, a lot of pressure

the greek catholic church took part even after ovdiivka, i remember, and so on, but why so, well, it'sheir business already, so i won't judge why they didn't take part, then god is their judge, as they say, you deal with it evacuation since 2014, and have experienced so much, and now you calmly talk about captivity, torture, injuries, arson, and how the car caught fire. but you can compare the evacuation of the 14th year from and the way the war began then, from this great one war, is there any difference for you, how to act in which situations, or is everything in principle very similar, well, there are similar things, but i remember the 14th year, when it was something like that, well , it is not known what is going on, and the war began, people fled and did not know. what will happen next in their lives, similarly today people are fleeing, it is not known what will happen next in their lives and so on, that's all, but there is a difference, of course, even a difference, there is the evacuation that was initially full-scale, as i already said , that for almost two years, evacuation f

ukrainians in russia live underground, as it were as, say, the ukrainian greek-catholic church lived under the soviet times, the same must be lived now, there will be, there will be a change in the regime, i am convinced of this, as when it will happen, i don’t know, but please, stay ukrainian, tell me please , by the way, about ukrainianness and citizenship, i can't help but ask you about this law on multiple citizenship, about some kind of discussion, it's not like it's under consideration, but... it's not being adopted, how interested are you in the adoption of this law at all , as a representative of the ukrainian world community, and as this law should look like, we have been calling for a formula of multiple or dual citizenship for many years, even before zelenskyi's presidency, because it simply reflects the reality, the reality is the majority of ukrainians living abroad, well, let's say before a full-scale invasion. have the citizenship of another country, that is, this is a reality today, but they did it, well, theoretically, it is illegal, and these laws should be adapted

then until the year 46, in fact, there was the romanian church, and the bukovyna diocese, and there, and there everything belonged or greek-catholicx church, which did not obey at all in moscow, unfortunately, yes... the situation is breaking even on national issues, so everyone understands it all, and the challenges are enormous, but they had to be solved, but how did it actually happen that those churches there in transcarpathia and bukovina, which you mention, the orthodox church of the mp became so, so rooted and dominated, and what? can't they use the same methods from the past to continue to stay and operate within the borders of ukraine? well, they simply cannot continue to act within the borders of ukraine, because i emphasize once again, in order to act, they need to hold a religious service, in order to hold a religious service, they need to either commemorate or not commemorate certain hierarchies in which they are subject, if they will not commemorate them, then it is necessary... to admit that they do not have any. mr. victor, something is missing, and in fact there is, if you can repeat the last thought, mr. viktor,

and churches and organizations in america this year. we celebrate not only the oldest ukrainian organization of 130 years, which was created in pennsylvania, but the first ukrainian greek catholicce was held 140 years ago, in december of this year, in pennsylvania as well, so long our people have been there, so many organizations, churches, cultural centers have, but this does not mean that they will be 100% unanimous to vote, and yet the most important. more, as i said before, the more we can get them to vote, the more influence we will have, and mostly the whole state, it depends on the two main cities in this state, there's pittsburgh on the west side, and philadelphia on the east side , everything else inside, they consider it as a wild forest, and there mainly, because there are no big cities there, the majority...votes for republicans, so it falls to the democrats, how to best organize those millions who live in those two main cities that they beat the rest of the state and then they have a chance to win in pennsylvania. we must also tell our viewers that the american electoral system is a little different from the ukrainian one, because in our country, the more votes for

there in the ulgov region, yes, there are, there are greek catholics, there are, but there are many orthodox people there, of the ukrainian orthodox churchs them, i... or to the front, and if not, then those people who could run away, well, okay, they will run away, as his high-mindedness says, the head, the adviser to zelensky's office, the presidential office, misha podalyak, he says: listen, you little people, if you don't want to listen to us, if you don't want to, go buy lvk certificates and get out from ukraine, this is mikhail podalyak speaking to all citizens of ukraine, if you haven't... august 31 in connection with afghanistan, and i want to remember that on august 31 exactly 30 years ago , the already non-soviet russian army was withdrawn from the baltics, and in all three countries these were three agreements, in estonia in lvia in lithuania, the binding agreement was approximately the following, we and russia are withdrawing regular troops. you, latvians, lithuanians, estonians, guarantee the preservation of monuments and military burials. all three countries, as is known, after the start of the special military operation, a
