Not true. Zelensky and the Ukrainian Parliament are banning the RUSSIAN Orthodox Church, which is separate from the UKRAINIAN Orthodox Church and got caught feeding military intelligence information and targeting data to the Russian FSB and GRU.
So it's an anti-espionage measure instead of an anti-Christianity measure.
The ignorance concerning this story is appalling.

Russia has been using Orthodoxy for centuries to appeal to the people in Ukraine and Belarus. That was the device used to play divide and conquer to take these lands from the old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which embraced freedom of religion. It gets harder to do when Ukraine has its own independent Orthodox church.

Absolutely correct!

The church in Ukraine not linked to Russia is not recognized by any of the other Orthodox churches.

You are too funny and also know Nothing about the Orthodox church.

Here in America 700 parishes, etc, also trace history to Russia.
Just as the Ukrainian church being banned does.

Yet another Zeeper noob. Zeepers are either BushBot neocons that joined around the election of 2000 or green noobs.

The Zeepers try to conveniently forget that the call between President Trump and Zelensky was the basis for the coup and Colonel Vindman, the creepy “whistle blower “was a naturalized Ukrainian national who has been offered the position of Defense Minister of Ukraine two times by the Ukraine.
