Metropolitan Jonathan of Tulchin and Bratslav commented on the accusations of the SBU of illegal actions against Ukraine, reports the press service of the Tulchin Eparchy.

“On November 18, 2022, I found out from the official Telegram channel of the SBU that allegedly I, quote, “in my propaganda leaflets ... called for the seizure of state power and violation of the borders of our country.” I declare that these reports are groundless and do not correspond to the truth,” said Metropolitan Jonathan.

As reported, the SBU officially notified Metropolitan Jonathan (Yeletsky) of the suspicion.
