/PanARMENIAN.Net/ RA President Serzh Sargsyan met Catholicos of All
Armenians, Garegin II to discuss state-church relations as well as
RA-Turkish rapprochement process.
According to RA President, the rapprochement process entered the stage
of social and political discussions. Serzh Sargsyan characterized the
discussions as a positive factor. `Whether RA-Turkish Protocols will
be signed or not, they’re a good platform for discussion of issues the
country faces. Discussions are of rather emotional nature as the
majority of our people are the generation of Genocide
victims. Besides, places, sacred to our people: churches, capital
cities, are located abroad,’ the President said.
Sargsyan informed His Holiness that on October 1 he’ll stat series of
visits to Armenian Diaspora representatives of Paris, New York,
Beirut, Los Angeles and Rostov-on-Don, where he intends to hear out
Diaspora’s opinion on RA-Turkish protocols. Garegin II approved of RA
President’s initiative, stating that Diaspora is the most important
and inseparable part of Armenian people.
