Russia finds "satanism" in the suspension of citizenship of UOC-MP priests - фото 1
In her Telegram channel, the spokeswoman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, Maria Zakharova, commented on the decision of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who stripped the priests of the UOC-MP of their citizenship.

"Volodymyr Zelensky has stripped 13 priests of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church of their Ukrainian citizenship. And this was done on Orthodox Christmas! Satanism as it is,” Zakharova concluded.

Earlier, a similar hysterical reaction was presented on Zakharova's Telegram channel regarding the sanctions imposed by Canada against Metropolitan Kirill (Gundyaev) and herself.

"Sanctions against the patriarch of the church could only be imposed by Satanists,” she wrote.

As RISU has reported, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy suspended the citizenship of 13 priests of the UOC-Moscow Patriarchate by his decree. The list of representatives of the UOC, whose citizenship was suspended by the decree of the President of Ukraine, includes representatives of the Diocese of Donetsk, Crimea and Romny, as well as Odesa and Bukovyna.
