HIS HOLINESS ARAM I AND THE CENTRAL COUNCIL OF THE ARMENIAN CATHOLICOSATE OF CILICIA WARMLY WELCOME THE RECOGNITION OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE BY THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

The meetings of the Central Council of the Armenian Catholicosate of the Holy See of Cilicia in Antelias, Lebanon, presided by His Holiness Catholicos Aram I, warmly congratulates the adoption of the resolution by the U.S. House of Representatives recognizing the Armenian Genocide.

 

This is indeed a pivotal achievement and a decisive step on the path of the Armenian people’s pursuit of justice for the gross violation of its rights.

 

The Catholicosate of the Holy See of Cilicia has always been and will continue to remain on the forefront of the Armenian Cause and its people’s quest for justice. On this momentous occasion, we would like to express our deepest appreciation to the Armenian National Committees, as well as to the U.S. House of Representatives which, with this resolution, firmly and decidedly affirmed its commitment to human rights.
