Epifaniy Dumenko and Eustratiy Zoria met with Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby in London. The head of the Anglican Church received them at Lambeth Palace, according to archbishopofcanterbury.org.
A message on the website of the Archbishop of Canterbury says that he invited the head of the OCU to "express his solidarity with the people of Ukraine and spend time in conversation, prayer and worship."
