UAOC starts a construction fraud on the bank of the Dnieper, – social networks

Primate of the UAOC Metropolitan Makariy in an official letter to the famous Kiev businessman and deputy of the Kyiv city council Vadim Stolar asked to provide two two-room and one three-room apartments for priests of his church in a residential apartment building on the land plot within the boundaries of the park of culture and recreation "Pochayna". This was written by artist and publicist Annabella Morina on her Facebook page.

Morina refers to the document received in confidence.

The Metropolitan assures the builder that the UAOC has rights to the land plot and has coordinated all necessary documents for construction. The autocephalous undertake "to fulfill the assigned obligations when drafting the contract, namely, to transfer the above land plot to the ownership of" Kyivoblzhytlobud "LLC (the company that is associated with Stolar, - Ed.).

On the first floor of this apartment building, Metropolitan Makariy proposes to build in premises for the Church and its administrative departments. "Apparently, it's not canonic to sell out the plot so blatantly. They need to pretend to be building a temple," Morina writes.

The publicist explains the land plot in question is a green bank of the Dnieper, a modern mouth of the chronic river Pochayna. "The Autocephalous Church does not have the slightest rights to this land," the publicist emphasizes. “Moreover, in this place - in a green zone of the protected landscape near Moskovsky bridge – it is basically impossible to build a high-rise building.

She claims that according to the detailed plan of the territory, adopted by the Kyiv City Council, the point on the map marked the possibility of installing a "cult structure" at that place. Such a "cult building" can be a church (or even a chapel-monument), but not a multi-storey residential building.

According to Morina, the construction was initiated by Metropolitan Makariy and clergymen of the UAOC Mitred Protopriest Vitaly Donchak as well as founder of the house-temple parish, Archpriest Andrey Khimyak, as well as deputies of the Kyiv City Council Vadim Stolar and Vladislav Mikhailenko.
