Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II will not participate in the
services to be offered on September 19 at the Armenian Church of
Surb Khach (St Cross) in Turkey, a spokesperson to press office of
The Echmiadzin Catholicosate told media.

The Armenian Church of Surb Khach is located in modern Turkey, on
Akhtamar Island. After official restoration works, there was not set
a cross on its dome, ignoring the Christian tradition.

The Armenian delegation to Turkey will involve two representatives
of The Echmiadzin Catholicosate.
