Kyiv Patriarchate is only interested in an underwear store, – Director of "Initial" (PHOTOS)
"Today I had to face ignorance, blatant poaching against the publishing house "Initial", which was simply thrown out onto the street like cats," said Victor Fedosiuk. "And who did this?" This was done by the church men, for whom in 1992 we won the cathedral and the building of this monastery. And they just threw away the books, the library, the property of the publishing house, as if we were some enemies of the Church. Moreover, there is not a single court decision. All this is groundless and unnatural. Real Pharisaism of our priests, although of the Kyiv Patriarchate. I'm ashamed and sorry for them. Who will they bring up, who will they grow up in this seminary? They are Pharisees and flunkies. Who took out our property? It was done by seminarians, monks, nuns, priests, workers of the diocese."
The director of the publishing house "Initial" said that he had already reported to the police, contacted lawyers and intends to resolve the conflict in the legal field.
"We have nowhere to go," said Fedosiuk. "At the moment they are using our telephone network, electricity – they did not cut it off. Air conditioning is on, electrical equipment. All this is the wing of the monastery, and we pay for electricity. This is a double lie and blasphemy. And they do not care! They do not need a publishing house, they do not need the Ukrainian book – they need bars, restaurants, and underwear outlets. Today they are already building an additional restaurant in the basement. And there was the NKVD in it. In the basement, there were the bones of NKVD victims. They just threw it all into the trash."
The UOJ is following the developments.
