Azg: Georgia is afraid of Armenian spiritual leader’s visit to Javakhk

25/11/2010

“In all likelihood, the visit of Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II to Georgia will be cancelled. The reason is Armenian spiritual leader’s decision to visit Javakhk,” Azg daily writes.

The visit of Catholicos to Georgia in mid November has been put off as Patriarch of All Georgia Ilia II needed rehabilitation after treatment. However, the Georgian side’s arguments are not at all convincing: if the patriarch is unhealthy, Karekin II may visit Javakhk without his escort.

It became clear Georgian Patriarch is not healthy to receive Catholicos of All Armenians, whereas he was in good condition to visit Gori and Achi.

According to the daily, since 1894 no Armenian Catholicos has visited Javakhk.

Meanwhile, local residents look forward to Armenian spiritual leader’s visit to Javakhk after breaking with a ten-year tradition not to go to church.
