    Isn't the Roman calendar an Orthodox thing? Aren't like 60% of Ukrainians Orthodox?

      as it gets “Westernized” by the West and “Russianified” by Russia.

      What.

      72% of Ukrainians declare themselves orthodox, literally the same church as Russians. Only in 2018 they had the schism but solely on political reasons, not the religious ones, to grab state control over the church.
