Viktor Yelensky, the head of the State Service for Ethnopolitics and Freedom of Conscience (DESS), stated that if the Primate of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufriy, approached him with the desire to join the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU), he would offer a fair model, Interfax Ukraine reported on August 21.
Yelensky claims he can design a model where "there will be no humiliated or insulted, no victors or defeated, where everyone retains their position," as long as Metropolitan Onufriy approaches him.
As previously reported by the Union of Orthodox Journalists, Yelensky allowed the UOC to appeal to Local Churches with a request for a council.
