The European Solidarity head Petro Poroshenko commented on TikTok about his slip of the tongue in the Verkhovna Rada when he urged people to watch Michael Jackson's performance, where he supposedly said that "the ROC is a blow to the heart of Ukraine."
He stated that the late American singer in his songs sang "beat it", when he wrote, "that you, Russian priests and invaders, had better run from Ukraine. And a call to Ukrainian patriots to 'beat the enemy.'"
Poroshenko noted that this does not apply to Moscow priests, as they will run away themselves.
As the UOJ reported, the Prosecutor General received a statement about Poroshenko inciting religious hatred.
