And this new head should ensure the merger of the UAOC and the UOC-KP, resulted in the appearance of a completely new structure, which will be given the name of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, stolen from the UOC. You will see that now draft law No. 5309 will be "promoted" in every possible way, creating favorable conditions for its adoption."
