KYIV – The Council of Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church (UAOC) defined the principles of behavior to facilitate the canonical recognition of the hierarchy of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church by the Ecumenical Patriarchate and other local churches. The first obligation for the bishops passed by the council is to refrain from communication with the head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church-Kyivan Patriarchate (UOC-KP). At the same time, another obligation is to develop the dialogue with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC-MP) and UOC-KP at the local, eparchial level.
