How the Moscow Patriarchate will be evicted from the Lavra, Danilov said.

    The Moscow Patriarchate will be evicted from the Lavra without physical force.

    The Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Alexei Danilov assured the media of this.

    Of course, there will be no use of physical force, violence. We are not the Russian Federation. But we will definitely fulfill what belongs to us, taking into account the regulatory legal acts that are on our territory …

    We are not against the church. We are not against those people who are related to certain religious processes. But we are against the influence of these things on the state. You don’t have the state to dictate, you don’t have the state to hold hostage,” Danilov said in an interview with Radio Liberty.

    Recall that the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP), which was suspected in Ukraine of anti-Ukrainian activities, must leave the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra before March 29. With the branch of the Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine, the lease agreement concluded in 2013 is terminated.

    The director of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra state reserve sent a letter to the clergy of the Moscow Patriarchate demanding to vacate the rented premises by the end of March. The agreement is broken on the basis of the conclusions of the working group created by the government of Ukraine, when they checked the activities of the UOC-MP in the Lavra.

    The verification began in 2022, when the authorities received hundreds of signals about the collaboration activities of the priests of the UOC-MP, who often supported the Russian occupiers in Ukraine.

    During the inspection, a violation by the monastery of the terms of the agreement on the use of state property was revealed, the letter from the directorate of the reserve says.

    The Parliament appealed to the Security Service of Ukraine so that the museum valuables would not disappear during the liberation of the buildings and premises of the Lavra from the UOC-MP. The deputies had in mind the relics and other historically important items that should be returned to the state.

    The Minister of Culture of Ukraine Oleksandr Tkachenko said earlier that there are 800 exhibits on the territory of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. He believes that the sanctioned persons from the UOC-MP should first of all leave the Lavra. In particular, this is her vicar, Metropolitan Pavel, who was sanctioned for anti-Ukrainian activities. But the monks can stay in the premises of the Lavra, but in what format it will be decided later.

    The reaction of the ROC in Ukraine

    The UOC-MP considers the eviction a provocation and does not want to leave the Lavra, because they believe that there are no legal grounds for this.

    Metropolitan Pavel (Lebed), better known as Pasha Mercedes (for his love of luxury cars), recorded a video message stating that the monks of the Moscow Patriarchate would not be evicted from the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. The metropolitan says that no one will force them to leave and they will “defend their rights to the last.”

    Lebed recorded several addresses, and in Ukrainian, although he had previously announced public speeches and interviews in Russian. He said his church was “not opposed to all legal actions,” including commission inspections, but the churchmen allegedly were not told the legal grounds for the eviction. So, the monks will not be evicted, because they have been living in the Lavra for many years.

    Almost simultaneously with these statements, surveillance camera videos were published online. It turned out that at the divine service, Lebed intimidated the flock with the “apocalypse” and “people in priestly robes” who allegedly would come to desecrate churches. He also appealed to the events of 100 years ago, when the Bolshevik-Communists began to persecute the church.

    These are the grandchildren of the revolution, the leaders, the persecutors of the Church of Christ. The apocalypse begins with Ukraine, the Metropolitan convinces the faithful.

    Capital of the Orthodox

    Religious scholars call the Holy Dormition Kiev-Pechersk Lavra the informal capital of East Slavic Orthodoxy. The monastery began to operate in the XI century, that is, about 100 years before the founding of Moscow.

    The church returned to the Lavra in 1988. By the 1000th anniversary of the baptism of Rus’, it was transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) – there simply were no others in the Soviet Union. Then the churchmen were given only a part of the Lavra – the so-called Far Caves and the building, in which the Kiev Theological Seminary would later be opened. Gradually, the territory controlled by the Ukrainian part of the Russian Orthodox Church, which later became part of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, expanded.

    In 2013, under the presidency of Viktor Yanukovych, the government decided to transfer this church for free use of 79 buildings and structures in the Lavra: temples, the famous Lavra caves, a seminary, an academy and the official residence of the head of the church, Metropolitan Onufry.

    It is for these objects that the agreement on gratuitous use is now being terminated.
