Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II has
invited the leader of Azerbaijani Muslims Allahshukyur Pasha-zade to
visit Armenia, Interfax reports.

The head of the Armenian Apostolic Church is taking part in the World
Religions Summit, which started in Baku on Monday. Karekin II is
paying his first visit to Baku in decades at the invitation of the
spiritual leader of Azerbaijani Muslims.

"I hope that our common efforts will bring tranquility to the region,
and cooperation between the people of Armenia and Azerbaijan will
lead to sprouts of peace," he said.

The Catholicos welcomed efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen
in the settlement of the Karabakh conflict.

Karekin II said he had been dreaming about the day the regional borders
would reopen and he would visit Baku to pray at the local Armenian
church. He offered delegates to hold the next summit in Echmiadzin,
the Armenian Catholic Church center.
