The European Union may impose sanctions against the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill, who supports the war and the killing of Ukrainians.
< p>According to media reports, Lithuania insists on this.
This is reported by the AFP news agency, citing a document.
“The EU proposes to impose sanctions against the head of the Russian Orthodox Church,” says in the message.
Earlier, this proposal was made by the head of foreign affairs of Lithuania, Gabrielius Landsbergis, who suggested that the EU impose sanctions against Patriarch Kirill because of the support of Russia's war against Ukraine.
“Yes. Such a proposal exists, but since a common position is currently being discussed, we do not have definitive answers as to whether this can be done,” the minister said.
It is worth noting that the Moscow Patriarch Kirill continues to support the murders and atrocities of Russian invaders in Ukraine. Each time the priest comes up with new excuses for the atrocities of the Russian military against Ukrainians.
