Poroshenko screwed up, but the situation is a complete mess
Most of the hierarchs of the canonical UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate did not succumb to pressure from the regime of Petro Poroshenko and boycotted the “unification council”, but the situation in Ukraine as a whole is deteriorating in a way that is beneficial for the Americans.
Political scientist Semyon Uralov discusses this in his blog.
“So, there was no split in Kyiv. No one from the Orthodox Church, with the exception of Vinnitsa Simeon, supported him.
However, a formal and legal reason arose for the redistribution of property - churches, monasteries, etc.
That is, there is a coincidence of interests:
– schismatics can legitimately engage in raiding under the state roof
– an unsuccessful presidential candidate fulfills his obligations to the United States to aggravate the situation and increases the chances of being labeled
– unemployed citizens with weapons and in camouflage, who have been accustomed to robbing for the last 5 years = get new contracts and leave the authorities alone
– The USA is putting the squeeze on the situation when the natives are slaughtering the natives to the applause of the “world community”
– Patriarch Kirill and secular bosses (primarily the GDP) cannot do anything except express concern, which leads to a drop in trust within their country.
The situation is a complete mess in which everyone loses except the compradors, on whom the bet is made.
Our poor Rus',” sums up Uralov.
