President of the Republic Karolos Papoulias on Monday received
the Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia Aram I, head of the
Catholicosate of Cilicia based in Lebanon.

This is the fourth visit by the Armenian church leader to Athens,
where he will take part in the Interparliamentary Assembly of Orthodoxy
taking place in Athens on the theme: “Nation, Religions and the new
European Reality”.

Catholicos Aram I, who is also president of the World Council of
Churches, celebrated his 10th anniversary as head of the Armenian
Church of Cilicia in Athens last Saturday, as well as the 75th
anniversary since the foundation of the Catholicosate of the Great
House of Cilicia in Antelias, Lebanon and serving the needs of the
Armenian diaspora.
