Father Vahram Melikyan, a spokesperson at the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin, has shared on Facebook a photo of Armenian priests serving in Dadivank Monastery surrounded by Azerbaijani forces.
 
"These priests are keeping Dadivank surrounded by Azeris with the support of Russian peacekeepers,” he wrote.
 
“Brethren, may your prayers be answered. Our nation is busy with other issues,” Fr. Vahram added.
 
 
 
 
 
Այս եկեղեցականներն են ռուս խաղաղապահների աջակցությամբ պահում ադրբեջանցիներով շրջապատված Դադիվանքը։ Եղբայրներ, թող լսելի լինեն ձեր աղոթքները։ Մեր ազգն ուրիշ հարցերով է զբաղված։

“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
