: Ukrainian lawmakers on Tuesday passed a law envisaging a ban on the activities of a Russia-linked branch of the Orthodox church, paving the way for a historic rupture with an institution that Kyiv has accused of complicity in Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
Ukrainian leaders have accused the Moscow-linked UOC of abetting Russia’s 30-month-old war on Ukraine by spreading pro-Russian propaganda and housing spies. The UOC was historically a part of the Russian Orthodox Church but it started to distance itself from Moscow after the February 2022 invasion. UOC’s metropolitan Klyment reiterated that the church had no links with “foreign centers” and criticized the bill as targeting the church’s property and discrediting those wanting to implement it.
