200 churches to be built in Kyiv
Two hundred new churches may appear in Kyiv soon. Head department of town-planning, architecture and design of Kyiv is working out a scheme of disposal of these religious constructions. Later they will be distributed between the confessions.

Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Moscow patriarchy filed the most applications on land allocation. Then go Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Kyiv patriarchy and Protestant churches.

Capital city administration will be engaged in distribution of lots. Positive decision will depend on population needs, money availability and presence of other churches nearby.

For example, if there is an Orthodox church in a region, where a new temple is to be built, the land will be allocated to other confession.
