Member of the U.S. House of Representatives Anna Paulina Luna, who participated in the rally in support of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church on December 16, 2025, in Washington, stated the inadmissibility of ignoring the persecution of Christians occurring during the presidency of Volodymyr Zelensky.
On her social media account on X, the congresswoman emphasized that the issue of religious freedom in Ukraine is of fundamental importance and requires the attention of the international community.
"II was honored to stand with a delegation from the Ukrainian Orthodox Church to raise awareness for the state-backed crackdown on religious freedom," wrote Anna Paulina Luna.
According to her, the United States must consistently advocate for the protection of Christians and uphold the fundamental right to freedom of faith rather than bankroll religious persecution.
As reported by the UOJ, earlier, the U.S. congresswoman called not to support countries that persecute Christians.
