The radical leader of S-14 and long-time provocateur against the UOC Yevhen Karas called Ukraine's war with the Russia "sacred". According to him, God preserved Ukraine in 2022 not to join Europe but to destroy the Russian Federation.
"God is pushing us to defeat the empire of evil," assured Karas. He is confident that the Western world is "frightened," and Ukrainians must become a "shield" for it, because even "ultra-Catholic" Poland is unable to defend itself.
According to Karas, despite the "catastrophic demographic situation in Ukraine," he sees "many positive development options" for the war. Therefore, Karas urged Ukrainians to cultivate a "fighting spirit" in themselves.
Earlie, the UOJ wrote that Karas promised to to “punch in the face” of MPs who did not vote for UOC ban.
