UOC-KP chaplain quits the army and promises hell for Poroshenko and Avakov
Chmel complains that he was defeated as a priest: "neither the political, military, nor church leadership listened to me about this war," he says, and stresses, "Our victory was stolen from us."
"We, like those guard dogs, on whom the evil master has put on a short chain, a muzzle and even tied our legs – we can see thieves, their crimes, we can hear the cries of the victims – but we can do nothing but strain at the leash and growl," says the "priest".
He explains that since he "does not intend to waste his life without the hope of obtaining the desired result (victory over the aggressor), he warns Petro Poroshenko, the current president of Ukraine, "that he is going to hell now because of the sabotage of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The same applies to Turchinov, Yatseniuk and Avakov. "
"I warn the above-mentioned persons that if, due to the crime of omission, we pass this war on to the next generation of Ukrainians, our children – they will logically, rightly and reasonably curse parents for this crime. This hell will catch up with the perpetrators here, in this life. There is just a little time left to repent: the countdown is already on," added the "cleric".
