The Office of the President of Ukraine, in collaboration with the Phanar, is preparing to register the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Constantinople Patriarchate, into which, according to their plans, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) will be integrated after its ban, reports the Ukrainian politician and public figure Ihor Mosiychuk.

"In Ukraine, a new church will be created, or rather registered – the UOC-CP (but don’t think it’s the Kyiv Patriarchate) – the UKRAINIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH OF THE CONSTANTINOPLE PATRIARCHATE! This church, or rather an exarchate (branch) of the Constantinople Patriarchate, according to the plans of the Istanbul Phanar and our Bankova (Office of the President), is supposed to accept the clergy and parishes of the UOC after its ban," Mosiychuk writes.

According to the politician, the ban on the UOC is planned to be voted on during the first plenary session, with the authorities then intending to offer UOC clergy and believers the option to join this new structure.

Previously, the UOJ reported on the Phanar’s exarchate in Ukraine and the implications behind the UOC ban.
