MP Artem Dmytruk in his Telegram channel commented on the order of the State Special Communications and Information Protection Service of Ukraine on blocking the UOJ website.

In his opinion, the ban of the resource is illegal, and Dmytruk "is preparing deputy appeals to the relevant state bodies."

"The blocking of the UOJ only proves that there is a systematic struggle against the UOC and its parishioners, aiming the destruction of canonical Orthodoxy in Ukraine," said the MP.

We remind you that the website of the UOJ is blocked in response to the request of the Security Service of Ukraine.
