Tatevik Shahunyan. The forum of LGBT Christians, scheduled for November 15-18, will take place in Yerevan, despite the rumors about its cancelation.

However, as the President of the New Generation NGO Sergey Gabrielyan, who is the organizer of the forum said, the event will be held without "noise and dust."

"The forum will be held exclusively in the form of a closed discussion, including for representatives of the media, any video shooting will also be banned," he said, adding that the gay parade or any other mass event is not scheduled, there will not even be rainbow flags.

According to him, 40 people will take part in the discussion, who in the atmosphere of "love and solidarity" will talk about the problems of the LGBT community and try to find solutions. To note, the Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II, various socio-political organizations, spoke against the holding of the LGBT Christian forum in Yerevan.

“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
