Armenian Catholicos Garegin II is expected to visit Baku to attend a
meeting of world clerical leaders in April. The event has been
initiated by the Caucasus Muslims Office (CMO), Azerbaijan’s senior
clerical body, according to Rahima Dadashova, the CMO spokeswoman.
The two-day summit, which will be arranged jointly with the Russian
Orthodox Church, will be joined by clerics representing the Islamic,
Christian, Jewish and other traditional creeds.
Dadashova said the first such summit was held in Moscow in 2006 and
attended by up to 200 clerical leaders from 49 countries. The scope of
territory from which invitees arrive may be further expanded at the
event due in the Azerbaijani capital, she added.*
