Pope Francis will celebrate Mass for the Armenian Genocide centennial
in the Basilica of San Pedro on April 12, 2015, as announced by the
Cardinal Archbishop of Buenos Aires Mario Poli during a mass in the
Armenian Catholic Parish of Our Lady of Narek on Sunday 17th August.
"The Pope replied to the invitation from the Armenian Catholic Church
a year ago through the Patriarch Nerses Bedros XIX to celebrate a mass
for the recognition of the Genocide," stated the pastor of Narek,
Pablo Hakimian, when asked by Prensa Armenia.
During the meeting with the Patriarch of Cilicia of the Armenians
Nerses Bedros XIX Tarmourini in June last year, Francisco also
received the daughter of a surviving family of the Armenian genocide,
he heard her, took her hand and said: "It was the first genocide of
the twentieth century." This gesture draw criticism from Turkey, and
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement considering that
"the expressions of Pope Francis are absolutely unacceptable."
