Expressing his gratitude to the believers of the UOC who came to the Verkhovna Rada, Metropolitan Luke of Zaporozhye and Melitopol writes in his Telegram channel that he cannot believe that our people will be heard.

“I really want to be mistaken in the preliminary diagnosis of the current government, which began to confidently follow the course chosen by their predecessors and aimed at the elimination and final destruction of our state.

People who came to the walls of the Verkhovna Rada are both pain and conscience of our Motherland. These are her true sons and daughters, patriots who love their country, love their Church, wish the welfare, peace and prosperity of our Ukraine. The fact that they do not want to hear them and that some kind of duty clerk is sent to meet with them suggests that the authorities are dead both in relation to their homeland and in relation to their people.

I am sure that if a dozen representatives of the LGBT community came to the walls of the Verkhovna Rada, then representatives of the ruling party would come out to them in full,” wrote Metropolitan Luke.
