Condemnation of the crimes of the Russian occupiers in Ukraine is not just a right, but a moral duty of all people, the head of the OCU stressed.

The Primate of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, Metropolitan of Kiev and All Ukraine , Epiphanius, said that the ideology of the “Russian world” is the same as the ideology of Nazism.

Epifaniy wrote about this on his Facebook page , commenting on the massacres by Russian invaders of civilians in Ukrainian cities.

“It justifies violence, murder, war and genocide, and therefore must be rejected and condemned in the same way that Nazism, its ideologists and its crimes are condemned. The co-creators and conductors of this criminal ideology are the head of the Moscow Patriarchate, Kirill Gundyaev and his henchmen. subordinates not only kindled this fire in every possible way, but openly, on behalf of God and the Church, with false lips blessed the executioners and murderers for their dirty deed,” Epiphanius emphasized.

He noted that the condemnation of the crimes of Russians in Ukraine is not just a right, but a moral duty of all people, “and especially Orthodox Christians.” But the head of the Russian Orthodox Church , Kirill Gundyaev, sided with the Antichrist.

“This is not about discussing the intricacies of canon law, theological contradictions or historical discussions. It’s about good and evil as such and about your own choice for everyone: are you with God or with the devil? Kirill Gundyaev has already made his choice in favor of the deeds of the Antichrist. I urge those who still have him for their shepherd – open your eyes, look at the poisonous fruits of his teaching, move away from the lawless, do not be further his accomplices,” Epiphanius said.
