“The legitimacy of the decision on autocephaly, taken by Kiev, is doubtful. It is obvious that the unification council did not take place simply because of the absence of all parties, which were to come to an agreement. That is why statements are made personally by Petr Poroshenko, and not by the hierarchy of the church,” said Viacheslav Volodin

“Announcing the so-called autocephaly, [Petr] Poroshenko destroys Ukrainian society, which is already on the verge of discord. He is indifferent to the future of church communities and millions of Ukrainian believers, he needs only personal power. He is eager to keep it by any means, without thinking about the fate of people and their faith,” the Chairman of the State Duma emphasized.
