Commenting on the Russian strike on the Dormition Cathedral, OCU leader Serhii Dumenko called on members of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church to unite with his structure.
“I call on everyone who remains in delusion. What is happening is a disguise under the guise of a Ukrainian church, but in reality these people are directly subordinate to the Moscow Patriarchate and essentially carry out the instructions of the bloody Patriarch Kirill, who blesses this war, supports it, and openly calls it sacred. It is time to come to your senses, to understand and realize: when we are being destroyed, we must prepare and unite. Everyone must rally together and understand that we have one enemy,” Dumenko said.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that, according to Dumenko, he sees no point in uniting with the UOC because it consists only of collaborators.
