Lawyer Oleg Povalyaev, speaking in court on the case of eviction of monks from Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, said that today the state wants to change the will of the Kiev princes. Video of a fragment of the meeting was published by Archpriest Nikolai Danilevich.

“You all graduated from university, all people with higher education, here sit monks. By the Kiev princes, the land was transferred for perpetual use to the Monastery. Here stands a dot. After that there were several state formations and so on. The fact remains that today the state wants to take away somehow the will of the Kiev princes”, – emphasized the lawyer.
