The Holy Armenian Apostolic Church has guided our people through the most difficult trials for centuries, preserved our national identity, language, culture and national values. said in the statement of the chairmanship of the “Supreme Council” parliamentary club.

“However, recently, at the initiative of the current authorities of Armenia, our history is confronted with perhaps the most humiliating and dishonorable fact in its history, which has not had its precedent for thousands of years. In flagrant violation of the RA constitution, criminal proceedings were illegally initiated and judicial proceedings were initiated against His Holiness the Patriarch of All Armenians and a number of high-ranking clergymen.

The “Supreme Council” parliamentary club strongly condemns the illegal actions taken by the authorities, reaffirms its support for the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church and His Holiness His Holiness Garegin II, the Patriarch of All Armenians.

We call on the judicial system not to succumb to the intrigues planned and carried out by the authorities of the day, which is directly part of the enemy’s plan to destroy Armenia. We also call on our compatriots to maintain national unity and unite around the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church and its spiritual mission,” the statement said.
