Russian President Vladimir Putin has been named "chief exorcist" by the head of the country's Orthodox Church as the Kremlin seeks to redefine the goals of its invasion of Ukraine.
Putin, when he invaded the neighboring country on February 24, used the term "denazification," saying that was the goal of his so-called "special military operation," but now his security council is shifting to the phrase "desatanization."
Aleksey Pavlov, assistant secretary of the security council of the Russian Federation, is now calling for the "desatanization" of Ukraine, saying that there were "hundreds of sects" in the country where citizens have abandoned Orthodox values.
"I believe that, with the continuation of the special military operation, it becomes more and more urgent to carry out the desatanization of Ukraine," Pavlov said, according to state-run Russian news agency Tass.
"Using internet manipulation and psychotechnologies, the new regime turned Ukraine from a sovereign state to a totalitarian hypersect," said Pavlov.
The Russian politician added that, in Ukraine, "there are hundreds of sects, sharpened for a specific goal and flock."
Pavlov said he is particularly concerned about the "Church of Satan", which allegedly "spread across Ukraine" and "is one of the officially registered religions in the United States."
Pavlov said he sees manifestations of "satanism" in "calls to kill Russians" and that these are welcomed at the state level.
He said that the Kyiv government is forcing citizens to abandon Orthodox values, and is working "reformat" the minds of Ukrainian citizens, to force them to abandon centuries-old traditions, to ban the true values that the Orthodox faith, Islam and Judaism carry.

People still trust Newsweek? I don’t.
Ummm.... Since when is Putin a bishop? Since when is a priest? Since when is he a believer? If it weren’t for his personal, direct intervention, Russia would have banned abortions.
It is Putin who needs a serious exorcism by his Orthodox Church. They need to press hard on Putin. Until the green pea soup starts spinning out. Then continue for a few hours.
Noosweak!!!!
I see the night-shift of the FreeRepublic Pro-Ukraine Propaganda Patrol is back on!
I think your reference applies to current, and likely future replies. However, the initial post IMHO is pro-Putin, for taking on the satanic side of Schwab, Soros, Deep State Cabal, CIA and its weaponized biolabs in Ukraine, etc.
I noticed this change over the last couple days, with “desatanization” supplanting “denazification”. They spread their talking points and buzzwords just like our media.
Be weird if Vlad was right, though.
Demonic forces disguised as “liberalism” are running amok everywhere these days.

Uh you do know that King Charles is head of the Church of England?
Patriarch Kirill, like Patriarch Alexi before him, is KGB/FSB. Our founding fathers were wise to reject the concept of a "state church" that is no less than an obedient arm of the government, as the Church of England was an arm of the Monarchy. Putin is the defacto head of the "church", and Kirill is his puppet.

On RT, now NATO is satanism
But, the Russians are the crazy ones!
Russian Derangement Syndrome makes one a blithering idiot.
Lol. Is this part of his Jihad.
I hope he practices in the mirror.
I thought they were after Nazis. Now Satan has entered the conversation.
They should just come out and tell the truth: Russia wants it because they want it. Period.
What does that have to do with the ROC?
