On May 28, the head of the OCU, Epifaniy Dumenko, met at his residence in the Metropolitan's House with the Acting Head of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, Serhiy Holovaty.

"During the meeting, they discussed compliance with international law, resistance to Russian aggression, inter-Orthodox relations, and historical mistakes that must not be repeated to preserve the Ukrainian state," the OCU press service reported.

As reported by the UOJ, earlier human rights defender Robert Amsterdam stated that the rule of law is alien to opponents of the UOC.
