According to her, despite the adopted law banning the UOC, the pace of transitions is extremely low, and the situation has essentially "frozen".

"Let's be frank: we are experiencing not so much a rollback, but rather a freezing of the situation with community transitions. This is a huge problem. There should be work not only by patriotically minded population but also by churches – the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, Greek Catholic, various religious denominations – on working with communities," Bobrovska stated.

As a reminder, earlier Bobrovska complained that the nuns of Korets Monastery do not have SBU shoulder straps.
