For Greek Churches from Constantiople:How does the eastern catholic church view the teachings of augustine and aquinas?
Favorable to Augustine, especially since at the sixth Ecumenical Council it was acclaimed. His works were mostly untranslated into Greek, until 1360, so this is not comprehensive.
Favorable to Aquinas, especially since his works were a standard part of the education of Orthodox seminarians. Diefication written of by St. Thomas Aquinas is similar to St. Gregory Palamas.

Just referring to churches from Constantinople See. Modern times comments of theologian Vladimir Lossky (1903-1958) are favorable. Georges Florovsky (1893-1979) did not favor St. Thomas Aquinas however.I am not sure that the Eastern Churches are favorable to Thomas Aquinas.
