Ukrainian lawmakers on August 20 approved a bill banning religious organizations linked to the Russian Orthodox Church, which Kyiv has criticized for being supportive of Moscow's full-scale invasion.

Such freedoms, like in doge meme wow

Apologise for linking RFE article, but it’s kinda funny because most other western outlets just copied them, and even funnier because they used even more biased language than a fucking RFE.

Also take notes:
Socialist countries mildly controlling the reactionary religious institutions: OMG BANNING RELIGION, OPRESSION, FASCISM, MISTAKE, ALIENATING PROLETARIAT (choose your flavour)
Neonazi US puppet outright banning church with millions believers: “Spiritual sovereignity”

    For the matter - the religious group in question (UOC) has not had any ties to Moscow for decades now, it is of the Moscow Patriarchate in the name only. Their “reasoning” comes down to “can’t have anything similar to the Russians”.

    AFAIK they have been trying to undermine the aforementioned church for years, even now it’s not really working - people aren’t buying it, mostly.
