    IRAN'S JUDICIARY CHIEF, ARMENIAN CATHOLIC PATRIARCH CONFER ON REGIONAL DEVELOPMENTS

    TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Judiciary Chief Sadeq Amoli Larijani and World
    Catholic Armenian Patriarch Nerses Bedros XIX in a meeting in Tehran
    on Monday discussed regional and international developments.

    During the meeting in the Iranian capital today, Iran's judiciary
    chief and Patriarch Nerses Bedros XIX discussed the conditions of
    Armenians as a religious minority in Iran.

    The two sides also exchanged views on the latest regional and
    international developments.

    Earlier this month, Archbishop of the Armenians of Isfahan Province
    Babken Charian underlined that the rights of religious and ethnic
    minorities are respected in Iran, saying that the country can serve
    as a role model of interaction among followers of different divine
    religions.

    "The existing model of interaction among different religions and
    communities in Iran is very appropriate and if people and nations
    of other countries follow this model they can live at peace and
    tranquility," Charian said in a meeting with Isfahan mayor.

    "Thank God, peace, tranquility and unity is prevalent among all
    communities (in Iran) and we are not experiencing the problems of
    war and turmoil that other countries are facing," he added.

    Iran's Constitution has officially recognized Christianity, Judaism and
    Zoroastrianism as divine religions alongside Islam and their followers
    are having a peaceful life and friendly relationship with each other.
