Orban: Hungary's stance on sanctioning Russian Orthodox leader well known

Hungary's views on EU plans to sanction Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, have been known for a long time, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Thursday, adding that Hungary's position had not been challenged at this week's summit of EU leaders. Hungary will keep to the agreement reached at the European Council summit, as it is binding for everyone, Orban's press chief cited the prime minister as saying, in a statement.
