Panorama, Armenia

On August 18, His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, sent a letter of condolence to the King of Spain Felipe VI over the Barcelona terror attack, the press service of the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin reports.

On behalf of the faithful and clergy of the Armenian Apostolic Church, the Catholicos of All Armenians expressed his condolences to the King of Spain, government authorities, and the good people of Spain.

"We condemn such crimes against the lives of God’s creatures. We pray to the Heavenly Lord that the victims may rest in peace and for the quick recovery of the injured victims.

Expressing our support to You and to our friendly people of Spain, we ask for Almighty God's blessings to overcome this disaster and rebuild the peaceful and normal life of Spain,” the letter reads.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
