PONTIFICAL CONGRATULATORY NOTE
His Holiness Aram I congratulated the newly elected President of Cyprus,
Dimitris Christofias. Hereunder the text of the letter of His Holiness Aram
I to His Excellency.
His Excellency
Mr. Dimitris Christofias
President-elect of the
Republic of Cyprus
Nicosia
Your Excellency,
It was with profound joy that we heard your election as President of the
Republic of Cyprus. On this joyful occasion we warmly congratulate you.
Cyprus has a special place not only in the history of Armenian people and
church but also in the heart of Armenians. In fact, the common experiences
of our two peoples and churches, our common values and traditions, as well
as our common struggle for justice and human rights have deepened our
friendship developing in the course of time affinities in many spheres of
our life. The world of today, with its multitude of problems, challenges our
two nations to work together on issues of common concern.
We want to assure you that the Armenian community of Cyprus, as integral
part of the Cypriot society, will continue under your wise leadership to
bring its active participation in all efforts aimed at the progress and
prosperity of Cyprus.
We are confident that you will put your rich experience at the service of
the people of Cyprus. May God bless you and lead you in your new
responsibility.
Prayerfully
ARAM I
