    RA PRESIDENT RECEIVES FINNISH ORTHODOX CHURCH HEAD


    YEREVAN, MAY 26, NOYAN TAPAN. RA President Robert Kocharian received
    on May 26 Leo Makkonen, the head of the Finnish Orthodox Church and
    Archbishop of Karelia and All Finland, accompanied by Karekin II
    Catholicos of All Armenians.

    The President of the republic expressed satisfaction on the occasion
    of the Finnish Orthodox Church head's visit and mentioned that the
    states and peoples gain from the two churches' warm relations.

    Characterizing today's mutual relations of the Armenian Apostolic
    church-state as excellent ones, Robert Kocharian said that Armenia is
    a region where the church, belief and preserving of traditions are of
    fatal meaning. As Noyan Tapan was informed by the RA President's Press
    Office, Archbishop Leo and Catholicos of All Armenians appreciated
    Finnish Orthodox and Armenian Apostolic Churches' cooperation.
    Attaching importance to interchurch contacts, they mentioned that as
    Christian churches, they exchanged viewpoints concerning problems
    arisen in front of the Christianity and mankind.
