    Garegin II Catholicos Garegin II will visit Moscow.

    On January 21-22 All Armenians Catholicos Garegin II will visit Moscow
    where he will meet with Patriarch of Moscow and All Russians Cyrill,
    archbishop Volokolamski Ilarion, chief of the external church relations
    of the Moscow Patriarchate, told a news conference.

    He said in 2010 the Russian church will develop relations with
    Khaldikon churches. The main aim of Garegin's visit to Moscow is to
    participate in the annual ceremony of presenting the award of the
    International Fund of Unity of the Orthodox People on January 21.

    In turn, deputy chief of the department hieromonk Phillip informed that
    the visit of Holy Patriarch Cyrill to Yerevan is due in March. In the
    Armenian capital he will meet not only with the head of the Armenian
    Apostle Church but also with senior officials of the state.

    "This will be the first visit of Patriarch Cyrill to the Armenian
    church with which it maintains traditionally good relations", noted
    father Philip.

    Catholicos of All Armenians is currently visiting the United States.
