Mykola Kniazhytsky, a deputy from the political party "European Solidarity" and one of the authors of the bill to ban the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, has produced another film spreading anti-church propaganda and inciting hatred against the clergy and believers of the UOC. According to Obozrevatel, the film titled "Down with the ROC! The Last Battle" is a continuation of two other films made over the past seven months: "Church Without Christ" and "ROC: Liquidation Operation."

The authors of the new film attempt to discredit international human rights defenders of the UOC, particularly lawyer Robert Amsterdam, as well as those members of Parliament who oppose violating the rights of millions of Christians in Ukraine and are not willing to vote for the anti-church law banning the UOC.

"We have a chance to resolve a matter of historical significance if Parliament finally considers in the second reading the bill to ban the activities of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is unheard of that in Ukraine, in the third year of a big war, structures of the enemy Church operate under the guise of the so-called UOC-MP. Moscow's last stronghold in Ukraine must fall. Only one step remains," Kniazhytsky incites hatred against Orthodox Ukrainians in the film.

As reported, former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor Robert Destro spoke at hearings in Congress, condemning the hypocrisy of official Washington regarding the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church by the authorities.
