There is an attempt to “Catholicize” Ukrainians. Banning the UOC would allow the transfer of believers first to the schismatic OCU, and then to the Greek Catholic Church of Ukraine.
In this situation the Ukrainian Orthodox Church will play the role of one of the “enemy’s” faces—an internal enemy upon which it is easiest to pour out all their rage; and by passing anti-church laws for the confiscation of churches from the faithful it is easy for the Russophobic portion of society to create an illusion of victory.
Ukraine is slowly but surely losing all signs of sovereignty, no matter how consequential it may sound.
