    HIS HOLINESS ARAM I RECEIVES
    MINISTER OF CULTURE TAREK MITRI

    His Holiness Aram I received the Lebanese Minister of Culture,
    Dr. Tarek Mitri, in the Antelias headquarters of the Catholicosate
    of Cilicia, on Monday 6 November 2006. The official meeting later
    extended to a joint lunch.

    His Holiness Aram I and the Lebanese official focused mainly on the
    internal situation in Lebanon, particularly in light of the recent
    internal and regional developments, on which the minister briefed
    His Holiness.

    Talks were also held on the inter-religious dialogue to be held
    in Antelias next week under the auspices and organization of the
    Catholicosate of Cilicia. Minister Mitri will participate in this
    dialogue and address the meeting.

    The Catholicos highlighted the importance of emphasizing cultural
    heritage and suggested that Lebanon, with its unique role in the Arab
    world with respect to showing interest in such heritage, invest new
    liveliness in this field.
