ANNOUNCEMENT
Catholicos of the Holy See of Cilicia, His Holiness Aram I and the Armenian
Central National Committee join their voice to the Catholicos of All
Armenians, His Holiness Karekin II, and the Supreme Spiritual Council on the
eve of the February 19 presidential elections in Armenia and call on our
beloved people in Armenia to participate in the presidential elections with
a profound sense of patriotism and responsibility.
In the processes of strengthening the bases of its statehood, bettering its
citizens' quality of life, further guaranteeing the security of Armenia and
Karabakh and strengthening its place and role in the international
community, our homeland needs harmony, love and mutual understanding between
its people. Political differences should not affect our nation's internal
unity and the security of our country.
It is essential, therefore, that the elections are conducted in a free, fair
and transparent manner in accordance with democratic standards. It is also
essential to steer clear of intolerance and narrow personal gains or
interests. The strengthening of Armenia and the pursuit of our ultimate
national interests should become the guiding principle both for the
presidential candidates and for our compatriots voting in the elections.
We pray to God that He keep our homeland and our nation in Armenia and the
Diaspora strong.
