“His Holiness Karekin II should attend Surb Nshan Church in Akhaltskha, which is being appropriated by Georgia. Besides, he should address the issue of legal status of the Armenian Apostolic Church in Georgia,” Gabrielyan told a news conference in Yerevan.

For his part, head of Upland organization Valery Arabyan said that a separate AAC Diocese should be established in Javakhk.

He also noted that Khrimian Hayrik was the last Armenian Catholicos to pay a visit to Javakhk.
