Ministry of Culture presses state administrations to count UOC temples with a view to «responding»
The requirement is motivated by the aim of «preventing conflict situations and timely response.» The letter does not specify though what exactly the Ministry's representative is going to respond to.
At the same time, nothing is said with reference to other confessions, which can contradict the provision of the Constitution of Ukraine on equality of all religions.
The document also contains the requirement to make a report on the funds allocated for cultural, social and charitable events which were held together with the UOC.
