BUCHAREST, Romania-On August 18, 2013, the President of the European
Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy (ANC of Europe), Kaspar
Karampetian, visited the monastery of Hagigadar in the city of Suceava

by both Armenians and Romanians. Every year hundreds of believers
gather at the monastery for pilgrimage.
A religious ceremony was performed by Prelate Bishop Datev Muradian.

with the Romanian Minister of Economy and President of the Armenian
Community in Romania, Varoujan Vosganian. They discussed the current
status and potential of the Armenian Community, and the possibilities
of a more active pursuit of the Armenian Cause.
Karampetian said, "The Armenian Community of Romania is one of the
oldest and historical communities. Over the centuries, the Armenian
Community of Romania has managed to maintain its national identity
and values and today has its own State Minister and Members in the
Romanian Parliament.
"It is worthy to mention that the Government of Romania cares about
our community and preserves Armenian religious and cultural heritage.
The Romanian Government also provides our community with significant
amounts of funding in order to achieve community projects.
"We express our readiness to assist the Community in an active pursuit
of the Armenian Cause and we are satisfied that both religious and
secular leadership are willing to support this patriotic initiative".
