Radicals near Rada demand the adoption of antichurch bill (PHOTO, VIDEO)

On January 16, at about 9:30, a protest action “Stop Revanche” began near the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. According to the UOJ correspondent, the protesters demand, among other things, the adoption of antichurch bills. At the same time the law enforcers who provide public order outnumber the protesters themselves.

One of the activists said that he considers the Ukrainian Orthodox Church "an agent of the Kremlin" and an "affiliate of the FSB", therefore he is sure that the bill No. 4511 (on the coordination of candidatures of Church hierarchs with secular authorities) must be urgently adopted.
