The military chaplain of the Uniates, Mikhail Dzyuba, stated this in his blog, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to him, representatives of the UGCC managed to “return” the Orthodox church to Kolomyia and now Transcarpathia and Galicia are next in line. And UGCC cleric Mikhail Zabanjala, in turn, published a list of churches of 110 names that once belonged to the Uniates, and are now subordinate to the unrecognized in the Orthodox world of the UOC of the Kyiv Patriarchate and the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church.
“Everyone will be cleaned up. Even schismatics from the UOC-KP and UAOC, who, in theory, have nothing to touch. Because they have nothing in common with Moscow and are patriotically “correct.” At the same time, the call for Orthodox Christians to voluntarily give up their churches looks like open intimidation and blackmail. This has already been tested in Kolomyia, where UGCC priests beat UOC believers, threatened to cut their throats and use a Kalashnikov assault rifle,” the From-UA resource reports the words of publicist Alexander Ermolenko.
