CWN - The head of the Russian Orthodox Church met with the US ambassador to Russia on November 28 and called for warmer US-Russian relations.

“We are experiencing not the best period in the relations between Russia and the United States, but not the worst either, if you compare history,” said Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, according to an Interfax report.

“I think work needs to be done, including by religious leaders, so that the two world powers could develop their relations and treat each other with mutual respect and trust,” he added.
