Without distinguishing which Christians and who persecutes them. When our Protestants arrived and spoke to Senate Speaker, clearly explaining who they were, that we were of the same faith, and who was really persecuting whom, then the puzzle was solved. But at the same time, insane amounts of money were thrown into telling how Christians are being \u2018persecuted\u2019 in Ukraine.

And a clear legal solution depends on parliament,\u201d emphasized Yahun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deputy head of the Security Service of Ukraine (2014-2015), major general (reserve) Viktor Yahun urges parliament to immediately pass a law on banning the UOC (Moscow Patriarchate).
