His Holiness Kirill I, the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, was
hosted in the Yerevan State University today. The Patriarch was
bestowed a title of the Honorary Doctor of the Univerity and was
awarded a gold medal.

"The day is particularly memorable, because this is the first time the
90-year-old university hosts the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia,"
YSU Rector Aram Simonyan said in his opening remarks.

The Armenian translations of the Patriarch Kirill’s first two books
were presented the Yerevan State University.

The Russian Patriarch informed that during his visit to Armenia he had
conveyed an invitation to His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch
and Catholicos of All Armenians, to visit Baku.

"On behalf of the leader of the Muslim community of Azerbaijan and
myself I have invited His Holiness Karekin II to Baku to participate
in the conference initiated by the CIS Inter-religious Council. The
first conference was held in Moscow, the second will take place in
Baku. Thus, I have come with an invitation and proposed His Holiness
to participate in the conference. I think that our openness, which has
nothing to do with weakness and loss of national identity, is capable
of changing much in today’s world," Patriarch Kirill of Moscow said.

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
