A nationalist is ready to head the Lavra in order to "drive out Moscow priests"

The editor of the magazine "Museums of Ukraine" Victor Trigub stated that he is ready to head the National Kiev-Pechersk Historical and Cultural Reserve in order to drive out "all the staff of the reserve, especially the priests and the UOC-MP clique", reports the "Cossack magazine "Surma".

"The situation in the Lavra is unacceptable from the point of view of the national security and defence of Ukraine! the editor of the magazine "Museums of Ukraine" Victor Trigub said. "In the center of Kiev, we have a nest of anti-state, terrorist forces, ready at any time to destabilize the situation in the capital, to attenpt to seize the administrative buildings, to lead the separatist riot. Surprising is the amorphousness of the SSU, the National Security and Defense Council, the administration of the President, the Verkhovna Rada, the government ... The impression is that they "do not see anything", "do not hear", "do not know".

It is also reported that the editor is negotiating with the veterans of the "Aidar" battalion, the "Azov" regiment and "Right Sector" to coordinate the actions and "take under Ukraine’s control the Lavra Reserve".

"The lease agreement with the UOC FSB will be terminated – the terrorists will be thrown out of the Lavra! " says Trigub. "But a new agreement will be concluded with the UOC-KP, which has really manifested itself as a true Ukrainian Church."

The "Aidar" veteran, a MP of the first convocation of the Verkhovna Rada Ivan Makar spoke no less radically. He said that "it is high time to restore order in the Lavra by clearing out the Putin's scum".

Radicals, as usual, did not result in any evidence of "cooperation with separatists and the FSB" of the brotherhood of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra.
