The official newspaper of the Verkhovna Rada “Holos Ukrainy” ("Voice of Ukraine") no longer considers the Holy Dormition Pochaiv Lavra "an outpost of the Russian world".
Probably, this is evidenced by the removal of the material by Svetlana Cherna with the corresponding title "Pochaiv Lavra – an outpost of the ‘Russian world’", which was published on the website of the parliamentary newspaper on September 1, 2020.
The above-mentioned publication was based on accusations against the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, which the author called “the main striking force of the aggressor” in Western Ukraine and a threat to the social and national security of the entire country.
As reported, earlier the former director of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory, a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the European Solidarity faction Vladimir Vyatrovich called for the Kyiv-Pechersk and Pochaiv Lavras to be taken from the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
