Filaret called the tomos “an instrument for victory in Donbass”
After the UOC-KP provided the tomos on autocephaly, Kyiv’s victory in the Donbass is assured.
Mikhail “Filaret” Denisenko, who was excommunicated from the Church, stated this during a religious procession in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“At today’s celebration we see a delegation of Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, who has firm intentions to give the Ukrainian Church a tomos of autocephaly. This means not only that there will definitely be one single Orthodox Church in Ukraine.
The second conclusion from this procession is this: our victory in the east is assured. Because the Ukrainian people have already united. And if he unites, then the northern aggressor will not be able to defeat him. Therefore, with this religious procession we are celebrating two victories at once: the creation of a single local Orthodox Church in Ukraine, and the second - the victory over our external enemy,” he said.
