The European Union will try again to sanction Patriarch Kirill, the head of Russia's Orthodox Church, after Hungary vetoed the decision in 2022.
His name has been added to a wider package of sanctions presented on Tuesday, three diplomats confirmed to Euronews.
Brussels does not reveal the identity of the blacklisted individuals until member states reach a final decision. Individual sanctions entail an asset freeze and a travel ban.
