Archpriest Dmitry Vasilenkov previously served as head of the department for interaction with the Cossacks of the St. Petersburg diocese.

Russian Patriarch Kirill signed a decree appointing a chief military priest in the area of the so-called “special military operation.”

According to the official website of the Moscow Patriarchate, Dmitry Vasilenkov, a cleric of the St. Petersburg diocese, who previously held the position of head of the department for interaction with the Cossacks, became the main priest for the war in Ukraine.

Now, on the orders of Kirill, he will “spiritually instruct” Russian military personnel and employees of law enforcement agencies located in the combat zone in Ukraine.

He’s got military medals. Fuck him he’s a enemy combatant. Shoot the mother fucker.

Now, on the orders of Kirill, he will “spiritually destruct” rashist military personnel and employees of the gestapo located in the illegally occupied areas of Ukraine.
~There, fixed the statement.

Please, don’t call him priest, he’s a filthy gangster.

The ukrainian’s doctrine in the matter:
“We are not teaching our soldiers to be killing machines. We don’t go there to kill because we want to or love to. No, the army is fighting because the Russians came to our house. They threaten our women, our children. They capture our villages, our cities.” (Ukrainian instructor)

The Russian’s doctrine in the matter:
“Rape, kill, steal, destroy, amen!”
