After the spread of Russian propaganda, the former world champion entered an unpleasant company.
Vasily Lomachenko is a traitor to the state in Ukraine. So consider the public movement HONESTLY.
The former world champion in three weight categories is included in the corresponding register of this organization.
The reason for this is that the athlete published on Instagram a video of a sermon by Metropolitan Longin, a bishop of the so-called UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate.
In his sermon, Longin said that “the state of Ukraine has started a war against God, against the Church of the Lord and against the Ukrainian people,” which is one of the main narratives of Russian propaganda about a series of SBU searches in the area of the Moscow Patriarchate.
After a wave of criticism over the comments, Lomachenko made another post with the same scandalous cleric.
Earlier in December, the boxer also published a photo of the Metropolitan of Zaporozhye and Melitopol UOC-MP Luka, for which the National Security and Defense Council imposed sanctions.
“Publicity imposes certain social obligations on athletes, because they are the idols of our children, and influence the opinion of the younger generation. It is hard to believe that our sports stars cannot determine for themselves who has competed who for almost nine years, who started the war, which is a terrorist state. This is the position of a man. The spread of fake Russian propaganda harms our country no less than missiles and shaheeds, ” Vita Dumanskaya, the leader of the Chesno movement, quoted the official website of the organization.
It should be noted that Anatoly Tymoshchuk is also included in the register of state traitors. The former captain of the national football team got into trouble for ignoring Russia’s aggression against Ukraine.
