It is VERY clear that the Ukrainian War was always a NATO/US Proxy War on Russia. How any country would want to be friends with the West after seeing them sacrifice the majority of Ukrainian males on the altar of their Proxy War is beyond me. I would shut down my embassies and move on. Clearly, the West is as evil as it accuses Russia, Iran, and China of being. Remember how they closed their eyes to the Palestinian Genocide and sat on their hands. War criminals, every one of them.
It stands to reason that Zelensky would resort to this as the UOC is aligned with the eastern branch of Christianity. Which is primarily Russian orthodox. The western Christians and eastern orthodox Christians have been at war of one kind or another for centuries.
Zelensky needs to appease his donors, which are the western Catholics and their supporters, to include some protestant sects as well. So, by a showing of force, he thinks he can solicit more money for his war chest.
This will change once he's gone. Which looks like it may be pretty soon.
Vought and other Christian nationalists in the regime don't consider orthodox churches as "actually Christian" or Catholics for that matter so they don't matter. They only work with catholics, specifically "tradcath" through shared observative social views and political expediency
This doesn't make sense as the VP is Roman Catholic. Whether one believes in Orthodox Christianity or not, they should be able to worship unmolested. Furthermore, even Trump isn't a Christian. Sure, he knows how to wake a Bible, but read it, not so much.
