Anti-Ukrainian sentiments have not gone away - Kharkov autocephalist
Separatist views continue to emerge in Ukraine, expressed in support of certain presidential candidates.
Archbishop of the Kharkov-Poltava diocese of the non-canonical UAOC, Igor Isichenko, stated this in an interview with the Kraina magazine.
“I have been to the Maidan. I called up the people who were standing there and prayed for them. In Kharkov they tried to organize their own Euromaidan, and it seemed artificial to me. But the central square of the city was occupied by anti-Maidan. I walked past it to work for a good two months. People were brought there from the Belgorod region,” says Sichenko. “The buses dropped them off on the outskirts where I live. From there they traveled to the center themselves, like locals. But there were also enough Kharkovites there.”
“Anti-Ukrainian sentiments have not gone away,” complains the publication’s interlocutor. - They disguised themselves. Their carriers were driven underground by the SBU. Separatist views are manifested in support for Boyko or Zelensky. And it is unknown how they will manifest themselves in the elections.”
