German term or phrase: in ihrer Linie
Sowohl bei dieser Sitzung als auch beim Zusammentreffen in der sowjetischen Botschaft in der Nacht vom 27. auf den 28. Oktober unterstützten die sowjetischen Vertreter die oberste politische Führung Ungarns "in ihrer Linie" einer friedlichen Beilegung der Krise.

Ich bin ziemlich sicher, dass dieser Text bereits aus dem Russischen ins Deutsche übersetzt wurde. Obwohl die Übersetzung gut ist, bin ich mir nicht sicher was mit "in ihrer Linie" gemeint ist. Ich vermute zwar: aus ihrem Gesichtspunkt oder ihrer Meinung nach, bitte aber um Bestätigung.

Explanation:
is how I'd say it. Linie reminds me of "line" as in attitude/stance etc. It certainly doesn't sound very German..;-)
