    HIS HOLINESS ARAM I CONGRATULATES U.S. PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA

    The Honorable Barack OBAMA
    President of the United States of America
    The White House
    Washington, DC 20500

    Dear Mr. President-elect,
    I greet your election as president of the U.S.A. with profound joy. Many
    American Armenians strongly supported you on this historic election. In
    fact, they supported your firm engagement for change and your promise to
    promote, with renewed impetus and vision, the great values and ideals that
    characterize the U.S.A.

    Mr. President-elect,
    It is the expectation of the American Armenians and, in fact, all Armenians
    of the globe that, during your presidency, as a concrete expression of the
    U.S.A.'s commitment to human rights and justice, the Congress and Senate
    formally rec - ognize the Armenian Genocide.

    With this hope in heart, as a spiritual leader, I warmly greet your election
    and pray the Almighty God to strengthen you physically and spiritually to
    carry on your mission in a world torn apart by injustice, poverty and
    conflict.

    May God bless you and the United States of America.

    Prayerfully yours

    ARAM I
