“Metropolitan Emmanuel of Gaul has arrived in Kiev. Now they’re discussing the details of holding the council, which it’s expected he will lead,” an informed source told Ukrainian National News (UNN).
Also, the news agency reported that a possible date for the unification сouncil was being discussed, which, previously, was determined on November 22.
