The two main priests of the Moscow Patriarchate in Ukraine are agents of the FSB and directly carry out the tasks of the Kremlin. Every attempt by Ukraine to ban this hostile group made a lot of noise behind the scenes, and the MAGA also shouted loudly.

WE will clear Ukraine of enemy agents!

@r_stefanchuk Put bill #8371 on second reading, now is not the time to think about keeping your own electorate. Time to think about saving the state!

It is known that the Moscow church, through American lobbyists, promotes a narrative about "alleged oppression of Christians in Ukraine". Who came to the defense of this unit of the FSB in USA?👇

Vivek Ramaswamy during the Miami primaries. Enumerating Ukraine's flaws, which, in his opinion, do not make it a "model of democracy" and therefore worthy of US support, Vivek stated that UA banned the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in reference to the Moscow Patriarchate in UA

Tucker Carlson accused the Ukrainian government of banning "an entire Christian denomination."
What defenders of the Moscow Kremlin Orthodoxy!

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate has hired a well-known lawyer and lobbyist, William Burke-White, to promote its interests in the United States. Namely, for the Americans to force Ukraine to abandon the plan to ban the Moscow church. It is known that an

hour of work for a lobbyist costs $1,400, paid by former People's Deputy of Ukraine and protodeacon of the Moscow Church Vadym Novinsky, who fled Ukraine after 2022, was a Moscow agent in Ukraine, an associate of President Yanukovych

Lawyers Robert Amsterdam and William Burke-White were hired to represent the interests of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the MOSCOW PATRIARCHATE and registered with the US Department of Justice. Amsterdam confirmed this in an interview with Voice of America, saying that they

have been doing this for several months. Their main, but not the only, task, he said, is to achieve the withdrawal of draft law 8371.

What about Ukrainian society?
63% of surveyed Ukrainians believe that the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) (UPC (MP)) should be completely banned in Ukraine. This is evidenced by the survey data conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).

According to the Security Service of Ukraine, as of October 2023, since the beginning of the full-scale aggression of the Russian Federation, 68 criminal proceedings have been opened against representatives of the Moscow Church in UA, of which 16 are metropolitans of the church.

Among the crimes exposed are 20 facts of treason and collaborationism. 26 defendants-representatives of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patpiarchy ) were notified of suspicion, and another 19 have already received court sentences.

2022 year. A priest of the Moscow Patriarchate, Father Onufry, was detained in Kyiv for helping the Russian army. Correspondence with Russian special services was found in the priest's possession.

2023 year. The Security Service reported the arrest of the abbot of one of the Moscow church , who was secretly selling weapons and ammunition that remained after the flight of the Russian army in the de-occupied territory of the Kherson region.

2024 year. A priest of the Moscow Patriarchate was exposed in Khmelnytskyi region, who praised Putin to the faithful, spread Russian fakes on social networks, and incited riots.

And dozens more cases of collaborationism and aiding the occupation. The extremely large amount of Russian money with which this unit of the FSB is financed in Ukraine will not help them to continue their hostile activities. In the photo, their colleagues, Russian priests,
