    Expectations of the new Armenian Patriarch in Jerusalem

    http://www.ekklesia.co.uk/node/17971


    In the second of two broadcasts, international lawyer and ecumenical
    consultant Dr Harry Hagopian, who is also an Ekklesia associate, talks
    about the newly elected Archbishop Nurhan Manoogian, 97th Armenian
    Patriarch of Jerusalem.

    Dr Hagopian proposes the necessity of a vision to combine the
    challenges of both geography and demography in order to maintain the
    development of the Armenian Church in the Holy Land, and he reflects
    on its status, codified in a centuries old Status Quo agreement.

    The first broadcast, on 29 January 2013, was linked on Ekklesia - 'How
    the new Jerusalem Patriarch was elected'
    (http://www.ekklesia.co.uk/node/17910). It looked at the context of
    relations between the three entities (Jordan, Palestine and Israel and
    the Armenian Church), and the challenges and responsibilities the new
    patriarch will face surrounded by differing competing religious
    traditions and denominations in the Holy Land.

    Harry Hagopian is also an EU political consultant, a Middle East and
    inter-faith advisor to the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England &
    Wales and as Middle East consultant to ACEP (Christians in Politics)
    in Paris. His writings on Ekklesia are available at

    Formerly an Executive Secretary of the Jerusalem Inter-Church
    Committee and Executive Director of the Middle East Council of
    Churches, Dr Hagopian is now an international fellow, Sorbonne III
    University, Paris, consultant to the Campaign for Recognition of the
    Armenian Genocide (UK), Ecumenical consultant to the Primate of
    Armenian Church in UK & Ireland, and author of The Armenian Church in
