Ukraine's Ambassador to the United Kingdom Valeriy Zaluzhny met in London with a delegation from the Ukrainian Council of Churches and Religious Organizations (UCCRO). The former commander-in-chief reported this on March 13, 2026, on his Facebook page.

Representatives of the OCU, Greek Catholics, Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Jews arrived in London to present to Western institutions "the voice of Ukrainian interfaith unity." The ambassador thanked the delegation participants for their visit and noted that people of different traditions but with "one responsibility" had gathered around one table. The main topic of conversation was the importance of preserving faith in difficult times, which the meeting participants called the foundation of "our resilience".

Earlier, the UOJ reported that in London, UCCRO called UOC clergy accomplices in the war.
