ANTHELIAS, MARCH 13, ARMENPRESS: Despite the heavy situation, the
Syrian-Armenians will remain firmly adhered to Syria.
His Holiness Aram I, the Catholicos of Cilicia stated this in a
conversation with the Director of World Watch Monitor organization.
Armenpress reports that the Catholicos of Cilicia said: "We will
never forget the fraternal spirit of the Syrian nation to the Armenian
people after the genocide. The Syrian-Armenians have participated in
the rise of the Syrian homeland for years. Today, when the Syrians
are in front of serious dangers and challenges we cannot forget the
past and leave Syria. It is right, a number of Armenians left and
settled in safer places temporary, but we are sure that they will
return to Syria as soon as security is reestablished".
His Holiness Aram I also reacted on the solution of the Syrian crisis,
political behavior of Christianity, and especially the Armenian
community. His Holiness underscored several points including:
Syrian crisis can find only political solution neither by military,
nor by foreign interventions. The Syrian people in all the constituent
parts-state, friendship, communities, should participate in the
process leading Syria to peace. Christian-Muslim coexistence is
one of the typical phenomena by the Syrian friendship. Christian
communities have completely fulfilled their obligations towards Syria
as an integral part of the Syrian friendship, they will also claim
their rights individual, or community.
