In Ukraine, hate speech against believers of the UOC is increasing. The head of the Representative Office of the UOC to the European international organizations, Bishop Viktor (Kotsaba) said this in a commentary with the Inter TV channel.

At the conference, the hierarch of the UOC delivered a report on the violation of the rights of believers of the UOC. In his speech, Bishop Viktor noted that the situation of the UOC in 2018 worsened due to continuing violations of the rights of believers, ineffective investigation of criminal proceedings and the continuing incitement of religious enmity towards the UOC.
