The former patriarch of former Ukrainian Orthodox Church od Kiev Patriarchate and honorary Patriarch of the newly-formed Orthodox Church of Ukraine Filaret speaks to journalists during a press conference in Kiev, Ukraine, on May 15, 2019. Tensions rise in Ukraine's united church created six months ago on the historic council of Orthodox bishops in Kiev, as the head of the former Kiev Patriarchate accused clerics and Ukrainian President in default of arrangements on May 15, 2019. As honorary Patriarch of the newly-formed Orthodox Church of Ukraine Filaret stated during the Unification Council in December 2018 an agreement was reached that he was engaged in the internal affairs of the church and the newly elected head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church Epiphanius external, and that supposedly these agreements were violated. Patriarch Filaret, one of the the most powerful clerics in Ukraine, established the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kiev Patriarchate in 1992 and was one of the main candidates to become the head of the newly created church.
