Court decision to demolish Church of the Tithes is a challenge to Ukrainian Orthodox Christians, - UOC hierarch

The head of the Synodal Information and Education Department of the UOC, Metropolitan Kliment (Vecherya), commented on the decision of the Economic Court of February 15, 2023 on the demolition of the Tithes Monastery of the UOC and called what is happening “a challenge to Ukrainian Orthodox Christians.” He stated this to Strana.ua.

Metropolitan of Nizhyn and Pryluky Kliment compared what is happening in Ukraine with the Lenin era of the USSR.

The metropolitan said that the court did not answer the question of what would need to be done with those who pray in this temple. Although history, according to Metropolitan Kliment, knows the answer to this question.
