Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia calls for consolidation amid mass protests and marches underway in Armenia
"Problems and questions may arise, but we need to sit down and discuss them in the spirit of mutual understanding, not in the street. Compromise should be sought together. This is what it should be. Continuing in this manner and in such a way is harmful to our homeland," His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia stated today at a meeting with PM Serzh Sargsyan and His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians.
As the press department at the government reported, referring to the rallies ongoing ij Yerevan streets, the Great House of Cilicia emphasized that fostering an atmosphere of tension and uncertainty involving the youth and teenagers can be harmful for both our people and Armenia's image outside the country.
"I am glad that you, too, Mr. Prime Minister, have called on the sides to come together and discuss issues at the table of negotiations that should be led by the President and yourself. Otherwise, Homeland, Artsakh and our people will suffer losses if things keep going this way. It is time to come together because we are besieged by non-friendly forces. There are, of course, questions, but we should talk about these issues with mutual love and respect. This is what we wanted to convey to you, Mr. Prime Minister," the Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia said.՛
