MP Solomiya Bobrovska said on the "Espreso" channel that Greek Catholics and other denominations of Ukraine should also work on the transitions of UOC communities to the OCU.

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.
