Filaret: Wherever I appear, Epifaniy runs away from there, he hates me
The head of the UOC-KP said that Epifaniy Dumenko hates him and therefore avoids any meetings.
Epifaniy Dumenko constantly runs away when he sees Filaret nearby. Denisenko spoke about this in an interview with Apostrophe.
“Recently I was congratulated on my birthday. Epifaniy did not congratulate me. In general, wherever I appear, he runs away from that place. On the Dnieper, I consecrated the water, he was supposed to be there, but when he found out that I would be there, he didn’t show up,” says the "patriarch". Another case occurred in the Ukrainian House, where public funeral for those who died in Brovary tragedy was held. Epifaniy saw me there and fled. So much he hates me."
Filaret also accused his pupil of greed.
“Epifaniy covets for the property of the Kyiv Patriarchate. Such a desire to own other people's property leads to similar consequences. Acquisitiveness is at the heart of it,” he added.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the supporters of Epifaniy intimidate the employees of the UOC-KP and force them to abandon Filaret.
