He stated this to the portal "New time".

According to him, the current church structure in Ukraine is dependent on the Patriarchate of Constantinople.

“Three items that take away our autocephalous church rights. We are autocephalous by name, but in fact we are a church dependent on the Patriarchate of Constantinople ... We do not refuse tomos, but we will not fulfill these three conditions that are recorded in tomos. We will not perform, ”he said.

As Filaret pointed out, he refuses to fulfill the conditions of a tomos on the transfer of foreign parishes of the former UOC-KP to the Ecumenical Patriarchate, refuses to ban the cooking of peace, and also refuses to resolve internal conflicts only in agreement with Fanar.

Earlier, Philaret criticized the name of the new church in Ukraine.
