February 22, 2017 – On February 22, the first trial between the Ministry of Culture and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC-MP) took place. The UOC-MP sued the Ministry of Culture over refusal to accept and register the internal charters of the dioceses and monasteries.
The trial took place because the Ministry refused to register the charters over a course of two years. The representatives of the Ministry of Culture did not show up, despite being duly contacted. They have also not yet appealed the court decisions.
