Right Sector threatens MP to help him “properly” transfer the declared church
“Member of Parliament Anatoliy Matviyenko transfers the declared the Assumption church of in Brilovka village to the village council balance on condition that the Moscow Patriarchate #occupier’schurch serves there. A transfer agreement has been made up. What a pity! I hope Mr. Matviyenko will change his mind! Let’s help the MP to make the right choice,” calls the ultra-radical.
Earlier, MP from Petro Poroshenko Bloc Anatoliy Matviyenko announced he had documented the Assumption church in Vinnitsa region on his name to transfer it further as a donation.
"I want to make a donation. These construction works have been on for 8 years now. It’ll take another 2 years to formalize all documents, I think. This is just a small contribution by all my friends and partners who took on a responsibility to build a unique church. One needs to document it before it can be transferred into ownership. That’s why I did all the formalities in 2015. At the moment it is being transferred. I assume this transfer procedure will be finalized on Friday. This is a priceless temple. It really has no worth, since each of its stones was taken out from the open-cut mining in the Crimea during 4 years,” said Mr. Matviyenko on air Espreso TV.
According to the e-declaration, Anatoliy Matviyenko, Member of Parliament from Petro Poroshenko Bloc, is an owner of the Holy Mother church lodging in Vinnitsa region.
