The head of the OCU, Serhiy Dumenko, assured the Orthodox Times that the OCU will not violate the conditions spelt out in the Tomos.
He mentioned an article "that falsely and unjustifiably claimed that the Orthodox Church of Ukraine allegedly violated the Tomos and the Charter, rejected the canonical rights of the Ecumenical Patriarch, which belong only to him".
Dumenk said, "The facts show that, among all Churches that have appealed to the Ecumenical Patriarchate in recent decades in order to resolve complex Canonical matters, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine has been the most consistent in fulfilling its obligations."
He assured that the OCU "has never exceeded what is stipulated in the Tomos, the Charter and the rights of an autocephalous Church". Dumenko called "Moscow's associates" those who claim otherwise.
