Political Expert: All-Ukrainian Cross Procession is a willing of citizens to show the country is tired of war (VIDEO)
There is going on an information attack at the Cross Procession in Ukraine. A request not to distribute false and silly information related to the devotional procession was addressed to journalists by political expert Pavel Karnazytskiy. It is reported by the UOJ correspondent.
“At present the war party did not devise anything better than to announce about the new intervention of the Russian Federation into Ukraine. Their target became All-Ukrainian Cross Procession which was organized but the Ukrainian Orthodox Church,” he said.
“A lot of experts have raised their ratings by the lip-service. Now that the state has embarked on the course towards peace – these experts are no longer in demand. That’s why they need to jump to headlines using any epatage. It’s vital for them to remain in the information field since they are aware of the fact that tomorrow there will no longer be rainbows and butterflies for them and no demand in their services,” emphasized the political expert.
“For this reason fail-experts are making such strange statements – from calls to crucify participants of the Cross Procession to the most bizarre ones that the priests hide weapons under their robes. These utterances are absurd, nevertheless popular with the public like anything which is absurd,” Pavel Karnazytskiy asserted and requested the journalists not to disseminate false and silly information related to the Cross Procession.
It will be reminded that on July 3rd All-Ukrainian Cross Procession of peace, love, and prayer for Ukraine started form the Holy Dormition Sviatogorsk Lavra, while on July 9th a devotional procession from the Holy Dormition Pochaev Lavra left from the opposite direction for both processions to meet in Kiev on July 27th.
