no closed churches
or major and minor religions in our country,
and the voice of the few religious communities in the All-Ukrainian Council of Churches and Religious Organizations sounds as loud as the voice of the churches to which the majority of Ukrainians belong.
The Patriarch was informed about the crimes committed by the Russian occupiers against religious freedom in Ukraine, about the dozens of priests, pastors, and theologians killed by the Russian invaders, and about more than 630 destroyed religious buildings.
His All-Holiness emphasized that the world knows very little about these crimes and urged to spread the truth about religious freedom in Ukraine and those who are trying to destroy it.
The Ecumenical Patriarch confirmed his constant readiness to make the necessary efforts for the prosperity of Orthodoxy in Ukraine and noted that he cares for the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
- In particular, this includes the initiative of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on spiritual independence, which is a prerequisite for the development of our country.
The Ukrainian side delivered to the Ecumenical Patriarch an invitation from the President of Ukraine to visit our country.
