According to him, this is due to the fact that the UOC-MP has an “unpatriotic” attitude towards the war in the East, and priests often call it civil.
“Even when I was a deputy, I was the author of the resolution to rename the Moscow Church, which for some reason is called the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, the Russian Church in Ukraine. And this is absolutely true, so that people know what kind of Church this is and what it does,” Mirny said.
