Europe would not simply sanction a private individual who supports Putin in the war, but the most important figure of the Russian Orthodox Church itself. Is that what we want?

Perhaps you are not aware of where these barriers might lie. There are different kinds: for example, architectural, communicational, attitudinal, instrumental, methodological, and so on.
