The Verkhovna Rada of the "secular" state of Ukraine proposes to appoint the head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate)
The bill, sponsored by such deputies of the Ukrainian parliament as Dmitry Tymchuk, Alexander Briginets, Andrei Levus, and others, proposes that the head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (attention!) Be appointed by state authorities with prior approval.

The explanatory note to the draft law “On the Special Status of Religious Organizations” states that the goals and objectives of the draft law are:
protection of the national interests of Ukraine through legislative support for establishing the special status of religious organizations whose leading centers are in the aggressor state, which the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has recognized as such.
