During the meeting Patriarch Daniil laid particular emphasis on the state of religious freedom and freedom of worship, stating that with regard to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) various restrictions are being imposed, church property is being forcibly appropriated and hate speech instigated, as a result of the “discriminatory policy of certain factors in Ukraine”.
