Epiphany practically does not socialize with Petro Poroshenko
Epiphany hardly meets with Petro Poroshenko now
At the press conference in Lvov, Epiphany Dumenko said that his structure does not campaign for Poroshenko in the presidential election and he does not even have a telephone number of the current President of Ukraine.
“I have repeatedly been asked whether I have the President’s phone number,” Epiphany told the reporters. “To be honest, I don’t have the President’s phone number and I only see him officially, we practically don’t meet.”
The head of the OCU also refuted the words of the Verkhovna Rada’s deputy Oksana Syroid that the newly created structure received calls from the Presidential Administration with instructions to agitate for Petro Poroshenko: “You may ask our hierarchs but I do not believe they received calls from the Presidential Administration with instructions to mention the name of the current President."
In addition, Epiphany Dumenko said that he was struck by how honestly the first round of presidential elections passed: “This is obviously the first time in the history of the Ukrainian state that we were able to hold honest democratic transparent elections. And this was witnessed by all the observers present, including foreign ones, that until now there have not been so fair democratic and transparent elections.”
Recall that during the presidential election there were many cases of direct and indirect propaganda from the "priests" and "bishops" of the OCU in favor of the current President Petro Poroshenko. Epiphany himself declared that in the future they see only Petro Poroshenko as a President of Ukraine and have traveled with him on working trips around Ukraine, which are called in the media as a Tomos-tour. Dumenko also stated that the place of Petro Poroshenko in history is near Prince Vladimir Equal-to-the-Apostles.
