"Ukrainian religious figures noted that in Ukraine, during the state of war, freedom of religion is ensured, confessions communicate with the authorities and address emerging issues in dialogue," the All-Ukrainian Council of Churches statement said.
The organization's representatives also briefed the Danes on crimes by the Russian Federation in the religious sphere of Ukraine.
