Uniates are strengthening in Kharkov
Ukrainian Greek Catholics consecrated a Uniate church under construction in Kharkov, the construction of which intensified after the victory of Euromaidan, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Kharkov is transforming a little bit, all these communist symbols are disappearing into oblivion, and the city is gaining its authenticity. It is these Greek Catholics who today unite around our church who are an integral part of the Kharkov community,” said the head of the Uniates, Svyatoslav Shevchuk.

Let us recall that in 2005, after the victory of the “Orange Revolution”, despite the protests of the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate, the residence of the Supreme Archbishop of the UGCC was moved to Kyiv on the left bank of the Dnieper.
“The Vatican is carrying out another attack on the East, on Orthodoxy: in the late 80s - early 90s of the last century in Western Ukraine there was a brazen violent seizure of Orthodox churches by the Uniates, carried out with the blessing of the Pope; in 2002, new Catholic dioceses were established... Currently, the scale of Catholic aggression in Ukraine is simply amazing. If just a few years ago the Vatican claimed that its activities were supposedly aimed only at caring for the Uniates from Galicia and the few Poles, Lithuanians and Germans living in our country, now, having become stronger, it does not hide the fact that its main goal is the Catholicization of our Orthodox people.” , - said the statement of the Odessa diocese of the UOC-MP.
It should also be noted that it is the Greek Catholic priests who play a large role in caring for the nationalist battalions participating in the punitive operation in the Donbass.
