You are so deeply ignorant it’s embarrassing. Patriarch Kiril is an Putin stooge and FSB asset. He is using the Moscow-affiliated Church to spy on Ukraine. No country under invasion can allow that. Ukrainian Orthodox Christians are free to worship in churches of other patriarchates not compromised by Moscow.Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (@RepLuna)In addition to the State Department, I will be reaching out to the Vatican tomorrow morning in response to the information that I’ve received in the last 24 hours from Ukrainian Orthodox members, as well as members of their own government, regarding the persecution of Ukrainian Orthodox Christians. American tax dollars should not be going to a government that is responsible for persecuting and obstructing Christians trying to worship God. The Vatican has a responsibility to ensure that they are educating the international community on what is happening across the world, specifically with regard to Christian persecution. We are seeing Christian persecution happening actively and documented in Ukraine. I look forward to the response and will be sharing what the Vatican says regarding the matter, but this is something that the entire international community should be condemning, regardless of Christian denomination.
Peace could not come soon enough in Ukraine.— https://x.com/RepLuna/status/2009479927893049430
