The head of the Servant of the People faction said that the Rada should consider more important bills than banning the UOC.

David Arakhamia, the head of the "Servant of the People" faction in the Verkhovna Rada, stated that the parliament should prioritize bills that affect Ukraine's aid, budget, and the country's EU accession, rather than focusing on banning the UOC. He made this statement to Liga.net.

The MP emphasized that he is not a member of the UOC or any other church and is merely "watching the competitive process" related to religious bills.

"I have clear tasks, and they determine external financing from donors, the start of negotiations for EU accession, and the budgetary process, which has clear timeframes. Until these are voted on, I consider everything else to be the political stances of different parties," he said.

As reported by the UOJ, the Rada is expected to vote on the ban of the UOC in the upcoming session.
