Against the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill, who supports the war and the killing of Ukrainians, the European Union may impose sanctions.
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,” the statement said.
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 his support for Russia’s war against Ukraine.
“Yes. Such a proposal exists, but since a common position is being discussed now, we do not have final answers on 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 the Russian occupiers in Ukraine. The priest each time comes up with new excuses for the atrocities of the Russian military against the Ukrainians.
