The head of the Zhytomyr-Polessye Eparchy of the OCU Vladimir Shlapak recorded a roll call video of the political party "Proposition".
“I personally vote for “Proposition”and ask you to support this young team,” Shlapak urges on the Facebook page of the political organization “Propositon Cherniakhiv”.
The video shows that the "bishop" is campaigning from the ambon of his church.
Shlapak explained the choice of the political force by the fact that the team of this party is the “determining voice” for him and his parish.
As reported, earlier another "hierarch" of the OCU consecrated a memorial to one of the ideologues of Ukrainian Nazism.
