His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia,
has sent letters to the President and Parliament Speaker of Cyprus,
hailing the criminalization of the Armenian Genocide denial by the
House of Representatives.
"We'll never forget that in 1975 Cyprus became the second in the world
to officially recognize the Armenian Genocide," His Holiness wrote.
He expressed gratitude to the Parliament of Cyprus for this historic
decision.
"This courageous decision is an expression of the commitment of Cyprus
to the protection of justice and human rights. The ties between the

vital to continue the cooperation with renewed efforts today for the
sake of justice and human dignity," His Holiness said.
