The producer of the scandalous culinary TV show held in the Refectory Church of the Lavra stated that everyone who dared to criticize it is part of an organized group working for Moscow. Akim Galimov wrote about this on his Facebook page.

According to Galimov, criticism of his show is a Kremlin operation aimed at disrupting the celebration of the 6th anniversary of the Tomos for the OCU. He claimed it was meticulously staged and planned.

"Friends, all of this together is yet another large-scale attack directed against Ukraine," Galimov assured.

He addressed Minister of Culture Tochytsky, stating that "the Moscow Patriarchate continues to use hundreds of our heritage sites, where they can do anything except promote narratives about Ukraine."

"This is our strategic goal – to expel them from our country," the producer declared. He pointed out that the UOC conducts services in several historical churches and "they are everywhere, and now they are beginning to feel a surge of strength."

"What should we do? Stand firm on our land and do what we must – fight this filth by all means. And that’s exactly what we’re doing!" Galimov concluded.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that a culinary show was held in the Refectory Church of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.
