The deputy director of the reserve Oleksandr Ovchar, persuading the believers to leave Building 58 of the Lavra, said that they could return here at any moment. The video was published by the Lavra Now telegram channel.
“In the meantime, will you let the OCU here?” one of the parishioners asked him.
“We don’t let anyone in here, we are a reserve,” Ovchar assured her.
She asked how, in this case, the “vicar of the OCU” Avraamiy Lotysh entered the Lavra residence of Metropolitan Onuphry in the 70th building. "What do you mean you do not let them in? You do,” a parishioner caught Ovchar saying a lie.
"Is this sedition?" the official asked her a counter question. He also said that because of people like her, "the reserve was forced to close the access of visitors to the territory of the Lower Lavra."
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the web showed the “abbot” of the OCU enter the building of His Beatitude’s residence in the Lavra.
