Putin Rips Zelensky For Banning Christianity In Ukraine

In August President Volodymyr Zelensky signed into law a bill banning religious groups with ties to Russia Saturday, Ukraine’s Independence Day. The bill’s main target is the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) which has historically been linked to the Russian Orthodox Church, also known as the Moscow Patriarchate.Zelensky referenced the bill in his nightly address, saying “Ukrainian orthodoxy today is taking a step toward liberation from the devils of Moscow.”The new law gives the UOC and other religious groups nine months to cut ties with Russia or risk being shut down by court order. The law passed Ukraine’s parliament on August 20, with 265 lawmakers voting for and 29 voting against.While the UOC claims to have cut ties with the Russian Orthodox Church in 2022, Ukraine’s State Service for Ethnic Policy and Freedom of Conscience says the links are still intact and the church remains in Moscow’s orbit.Ukraine’s Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has accused the UOC of spreading pro-Moscow propaganda. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the SBU has opened criminal proceedings against more than 100 clergymen of the UOC. Nearly 50 have already been charged and 26 have received sentences, according to the SBU.Yesterday Putin Said:“These are people without kin or memory, with no roots. They don’t cherish what we cherish and the majority of the Ukrainian people cherish as well.”This is in response to Ukrainian Orthodox Church being outlawed by Zelensky earlier this year."

Russia shoots down Azerbaijan passenger plane

Russian anti-aircraft fire could have caused a plane to crash in Kazakhstan on Christmas Day, according to US and regional officials.The Azerbaijan Airlines flight was en route from Azerbaijan’s capital Baku to Grozny in Chechnya, southern Russia, when it diverted and crash-landed in Kazakhstan, killing 38 people. Twenty-nine passengers survived.Most of those on the plane, an Embraer 190, were Azerbaijani citizens. There were also 16 Russians onboard and several citizens of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.In preliminary official reports on Wednesday, Russia said that heavy fog had forced the plane to divert from its planned landing in Grozny and seek to land in Kazakhstan, where it crashed after probably hitting a flock of birds. On the same day, Azerbaijan’s president said he had been told the plane had been diverted due to poor weather conditions. But that was questioned by experts and officials in the US, the region and Ukraine, who cited evidence that Russian air defences were operating over Grozny at the time in response to a Ukrainian drone strike. They also cited images of what appeared to be shrapnel damage on the inside and tail of the wrecked plane.A US official said there were early indications that a Russian anti-aircraft system might have struck the plane. If this was the case, the incident would further underscore Moscow’s recklessness since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the official added.
