We won’t discuss today how and against whom he realized it. Another thing is more important now. Soon, spring will come again. And not just the calendar spring. Global political events are developing so rapidly that Ukraine might soon face elections. And the new government will certainly be asked to investigate all the crimes that the old government, for whatever reasons, ignored. Everyone currently in high office should think about this carefully.

Why are we writing about this? We’ve received information that OCU activists intend to repeat the Cherkasy scenario in Chernivtsi – to seize the main shrine of the UOC by force and blood. At the same time, in Chernivtsi, UOC defenders will have the upper hand, simply because of the region’s specific nature.

We all understand that no such actions are possible without the support (or at least the passive complicity) of local authorities. And if a clash in Chernivtsi does take place, everyone will know who had a hand in it.
