28 July 05
A press release by journalist Karo Hekimian from Montevideo, Uruguay,
informs that the head of Venezuela’s Armenian diocese, Archbishop
Komitas Ohanian, notified in a radio broadcast that the
parliamentarians of Venezuela have unanimously ratified a resolution
recognizing the Armenian Genocide.
His Eminence closed his speech with the following words, “Armenians
will lose their identity if they ever forget the Genocide. As a nation
we exist in common history, one church and one future. We have to
struggle for the Armenian Cause, keep the Armenian children in our
legacy as all of us — organizations, the church and unions — should
go forward together”.
