On September 14, a meeting took place between the Ukrainian Council of Churches and Religious Organizations (UCCRO) and former U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo. The meeting was attended by Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Olena Kovalivska and the Chairman of the State Service for Ethnopolitics and Freedom of Conscience, Viktor Yelensky, reports the UCCRO website.

UCCRO representatives informed Pompeo about the state of freedom of religion under martial law and the humanitarian activities of religious denominations, as well as thanked him for his support of Ukraine.

The Council members "emphasized the high level of religious freedom that exists in Ukraine and the importance of protecting it from the use of the aggressor country's pseudo-religious chauvinistic ideology of the 'Russian world'".

As previously reported by the UOJ, in 2021, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo stated that he ensured that the United States supported the international recognition of the OCU.
