Elia Formaniuk, a member of the Volyn organization of the National Union of Writers of Ukraine, announced on the Facebook social network her intention to take away the UOC Cathedral of All Saints of the Volyn Land in Lutsk after its completion.

She wrote about this in a comment under her publication about the parking lot near the cathedral in the group "Our Lutsk".

“Let them build, then we will take it away,” this is how Formaniuk commented on the question of why “enemy churches” are being built in Lutsk.

In response to her comment, user Viktor Matveychuk asked her a question: “I wonder who you think you are: a journalist, a patriot or a raider (criminal). Or is it 3 in 1 in you ”, but he did not receive an intelligible answer.

As reported, the rector of the UOC temple in Lutsk had to fight off attacks on the social network because of the legal parking.
