AAC Georgian Diocese awaiting legal status

PanARMENIAN.Net - "We have numerously submitted motions in the parliament which should ratify the legal status of the Armenian Apostolic Church. But we have received no response so far," Primate of the Georgian Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church, Bishop Vazgen Mirzakhanyan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net



"The AAC Georgian Diocese jointly with Yerkir organization has organized an address to the UN Commission on Human Rights. By the way, no confession has legal status in Georgia owing to resistance of the Georgian Orthodox Church which erroneously thinks that other confessions encroach on its authority. Like Greeks and Muslims, our only wish is to return our churches and property. By the way, we have normal relations with the spiritual leader of Muslims of Georgia," he said.
