The Spin
Anti-Russia narrative
Despite claiming to have severed links with the Moscow Orthodox Church, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate never officially cut ties with the organization, and Ukraine's Security Service subsequently found that it was covertly aiding Russia's illegal war aims. The majority of Ukrainians support outlawing the UOC-MP.
Pro-Russia narrative
While Ukraine's American allies host the "Summit for Democracy," Kyiv is carrying out a gross attack on religious rights and freedoms. If the US truly wanted to uphold liberties and democratic rights across the globe, it would not be silent on this grotesque violation. Ukraine is discriminating against religious believers.
