On April 14, 2023, Greek Orthodox Christians published a documentary about the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
The film, entitled “ουκρανικος γολγοθας-οι συνέπειες του σχίσματος της στην ουκρανία” (“Ukrainian Golgotha is the consequences of the church split in Ukraine”) was published on the MEGASFIPOS Youtube-channel.
The authors of the film talk in detail about the church situation in Ukraine, provide historical information from the time of the 1596 union, and also explain the genesis of the Ukrainian church schism.
In addition, the film contains a large amount of material related to the events of the past two weeks.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the Greek media spoke about the persecution of the Ukrainian authorities against the UOC.
