Clashes at the Church in Ptycha Continue. New Details
Representatives of the UOC community explained that they are citizens of Ukraine who profess the Orthodox faith, have the legal right to pray in their own Orthodox church and even have on hand a court judgment proving that the church belongs to the community of the UOC.
However, representatives of the Kiev Patriarchate, headed by the Right Sector, only laughed at these arguments, threatening with new church seizures. Obviously, the words "Constitution", "law", "right", "court" are a mere name for some Ukrainians.
Deputy Chief of the Police in Rivne region Vitaly Zaslavsky attempted to resolve the conflict, but in vain. If one despises the Ukrainian court and neglects its decisions - so why should they listen to the police officer, even of high rank? Raider attacks continue.
