On October 1, 2019, the “priest” Alexander Dediukhin announced on his Facebook page that “in connection with the critical situation in Ukraine”, the Psalter is being read in the OCU.
In response to the question “What is wrong in Ukraine?” asked by one of the subscribers in the comments, Dediukhin answered: “Surrender”.
Earlier, Dedyukhin already organized among his supporters the reading of the psalms for the victory of Poroshenko in the presidential election.
We recall that on the eve of the parliamentary elections, the OCU warned that revenge-seekers who want peace at all costs were striving for power in Ukraine, urging Ukrainians to prevent the return of the Kremlin yoke. Also, the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholics Sviatoslav Shevchuk has recently said that only those who “want to save their own skin” get tired of the war.
