A Satanist activist known as “magician Veliar” who pickets near Lavra has received the order “Pride and Glory of Ukraine” from the head of parliament, Ruslan Stefanchuk. Bohdan Orishchenko himself reported about it on his Facebook page.

It is known that the magician Veliar has been holding “protests” under the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra for a long time, trying to expel the monks of the UOC MP from the monastery. On May 17, 2023, he conducted a sacrilegious rite of “repose of the UOC-MP”.

The Rada speaker wrote to the activist that his concern “gives faith that our country has a future” and added that “as long as such people live and work, the Ukrainian nation will live.”
