On Tuesday His Holiness Aram I received a delegation from South Korea. The newly appointed Ecumenical Officer, V. Rev. Housig Mardirossian also attended the meeting. The delegation invited the Catholicos to the international conference on justice and peace they are organizing in Seoul.

The Catholicos welcomed the guests and their plan for the conference and said, “Presently, many people, like the Armenians, continue to demand their human rights. It is my firm conviction that there cannot be peace without justice.” He then invited religions to work for just peace through deeper involvement in interfaith dialogue and cooperation.
