Sergei (Epiphany) Dumenko secretly transferred the “patriarchal” residence of the liquidated UOC-KP schismatic organization in Kyiv to the OCU, said the head of this organization Filaret Denisenko. He stated he would fight and win despite such a shameless act commited by Dumenko, the official website of the UOC-KP reports.
“Tell me – does the person who re-registered this property of the Kyiv Patriarchate in favor of the OCU have conscience? Moreover, he did it secretly, without my knowledge. I think such a person is shameless. The worst thing of all is when a person loses his conscience. We will fight and I believe that we will win,” Filaret said. He believes that this "crime" was committed by the two persons: Epiphany and former President Petro Poroshenko. "Poroshenko is deceitful and Epiphany is shameless," said the head of the UOC-KP. He believes that the lies and deception of Dumenko and Poroshenko can be compared with the fate of the Soviet Union, "It’s like the Soviet Union, which celebrated its victory for 70 years, living in falsehood, and then collapsed in an instant."
As reported by the UOJ, the “hierarchs” of the OCU are “not positive” about Epiphany, according to Filaret.
