Хто готував Лавру до приходу Росії - і що там знайшли після 2022 року

Why do representatives of the UOC-MP still remain in the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra? How did they prepare to meet the Russians there and how much did the business empire of Pavel Lebed, known as Pasha Mercedes, earn? In an interview with the editor-in-chief of LB.ua (http://lb.ua/) Sonya Koshkini, the general director of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, Maksym Ostapenko, told what was happening in the Lavra after the Russian strikes and why, in his opinion, the drones were aimed specifically at the shrine. They talked about how the Lavra had been promoting Russian ideology for years and preparing for a change of power in Ukraine; why up to 500 people were in the monastery before the full-scale invasion; why the UOC-MP has not yet been evicted from the Lower Lavra and how 15 judges took recusals and self-recusals in this case. Also — how many monks of the Moscow Patriarchate actually remain in the Lavra, who finances them, does Pavel Lebid still influence them, why only a few helped save the Lavra after the Russian attack, and how the business empire worked, whose income, according to Ostapenko, could reach $100 million a year. Separately — about the return of Ivan Mazepa to the Ukrainian history of the Lavra and what the shrine should become by its millennium.
