Kiev Council deputy demands arrest of law enforcers who guarded Cross Procession

The deputy of the Kiev City Council, "Svoboda" party member Yuri Sirotyuk, demands to fire and arrest Ukrainian law enforcers, who guarded the Cross Procession of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Kiev, "for their anti-state activities". He stated about it on his Facebook page.

Sirotyuk called the procession "Sabbath of the Russian outlook special forces in Kiev under the guise of Avakov’s cuckoos."

"Those law enforcers that covered the sabotage of the Russian Orthodox Church, which is disguised under the agent's signage of the UOC-MP, must be immediately dismissed and brought to criminal responsibility for their anti-state activities," wrote the "liberator."

"Those who contributed in any way to the Kremlin's fifth column should be immediately dismissed from their posts as collaborators," said Sirotyuk.

The MP stressed that the UOC priests should be barred from any influence on the state and power structures of the country. In addition, in his opinion, "the authorities must urgently initiate the re-registration of the UOC into the" Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine".
