YEREVAN (Combined Sources) - Iran's President Hassan Rouhani has donated
10 billion Iranian Rials (approx. $350,000) to an Armenian community
hospital based in Tehran, the IRNA News Agency reported.
His advisor, Hossein Fereydoon, who visited the hospital, said that a
co-existence of Muslims and non-Muslims is a good example for all the
countries in the region.
Meanwhile, Rouhani also paid what is being dubbed as a Christmas visit
to Iranian-Armenian families whose members had fought in the Iranian
Army, repooted Armenpress, quoting sources at the Iranian Embassy in
Armenia.
Rouhani first visited the Movsisyan's family. The father and son of
the Movsisyan's family `sacrificed their lives for the sake of the
Islamic revolution and protection of the homeland.'
The Iranian president expressed well wishes to the family members and
highlighted the significant role the religious minorities played
during the Islamic revolution and the Iran-Iraq war.
Among other things the Iranian President noted that the Muslims
consider Jesus Christ a prophet of mercy and kindness.
`This is a good occasion to express our gratitude to the families of
the victims and honor their self-sacrifice and resistance,' said
Rouhani noted.
The Prelate of the Armenian Church in Isfahan, Archbishop Babken
Charian said Monday that the religious minorities' right to have
representation in Iran's parliament is an indication to the freedom of
speech in the Islamic Republic.
Speaking to IRNA, Archbishop Charian said Iran is a symbol of peaceful
coexistence of followers of divine religions.
