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
