The head of the Ministry of Culture Tkachenko said that the UOC was given three days to leave the territory of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, Politika Strany writes.

According to him, the government commission completed its revision of the Lavra, as a result of which an act of acceptance and transfer of state property was signed with the reserve.

“The clergy of the UOC refused to accept this act,” says Tkachenko.

“If they refuse to be evicted from the Lavra, the authorities will seek this through the courts,” he added.
