Expert: OCU adds another line of division of the people
Director of the Ukrainian Institute for Policy Analysis and Management Ruslan Bortnik
The new church structure created by the Ukrainian authorities will serve to further division of the people, said the director of the Ukrainian Institute for Policy Analysis and Management Ruslan Bortnik on the “1Кozak.tv” channel.
According to the expert, now a religious line has also been added to the language, history, foreign policy and status lines of the division of society.
“We are turning before our eyes into Northern Ireland, where there are very tight, strict social boundaries between Protestants and Catholics,” Bortnik stressed.
He believes that the schism created by Ukrainian politicians will have to be healed for decades or even centuries.
Earlier political analyst Ruslan Bortnik noted that the intervention of the authorities makes it impossible to create a sovereign Church.
