A DELEGATION FROM THE CATHOLICOSATE OF CILICIA TRAVELS
TO HOLY ETCHMIYADZINE
In light of the unfortunate events Yerevan witnessed on March 1, a
delegation representing His Holiness Aram I and the Catholicosate of Cilicia
has traveled to Holy Etchmiyadzine in Armenia to express the support of the
Holy See of Cilicia to His Holiness Karekin II, Catholicos of All Armenians,
as well as to the families of the victims and those injured. The delegation
is formed of Archbishop Sebouh Sarkissian and Bishop Nareg Alemezian.
As he had emphasized in his statements in the immediate aftermath of the
events, His Holiness Aram I once more stressed that today more than ever,
when our homeland faces critical challenges, it is essential that the
children of our nation put aside all sorts of secondary issues and gather
around our pan-national values and interests.
