Олександр КовальДобрая справа. Добре, що архиєпископ Стефан зустрівся саме з Матусовим і Смоляк — люди конкретні, з досвідом. Будемо сподіватися, що допомога хворим і самотнім стане регулярною, а не разовою.

Luke HallGood to see concrete names like Matusov and Smolyak involved — people who actually run things on the ground. Hope the diocese, the hospital and the Red Cross can sort out some steady help for the lonely and sick, not just one-off visits. Practical stuff like that matters.
