OCU threatens power with mass protests due to "obstruction of transitions"
The OCU published a statement on “problematic issues of state-church relations”, which refers to the creation of artificial obstacles by representatives of state authorities and local self-government while exiting the UOC. It is reported by pomisna.info.
The “synodal” document also noted that the practice of “obstructing transitions” continues despite the numerous appeals of the OCU to the authorities, which further complicated the already difficult procedure of “liberating the community from the Moscow yoke”.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that the OCU allowed celebrating Christmas on December 25th.
