The Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia

Friday 11 June 2010, under the auspices of His Holiness Aram I, the book launch on Armenian Genocide in Arabic took place in the presence of a large audience.

His Grace Bishop Norayr Achekian welcomed the guests and reminded them of the Catholicosate of Cilicia’s commitment to historical truth and the Armenian Genocide.

Following the introduction, the author Dr. Zahreddine took the floor. He said that the book was an expression of his respect to the Armenian people and the product of his long commitment to human rights and justice. The author thanked the Catholicosate in the person of His Holiness Aram I for sponsoring the publication of the book.

At the end of the ceremony, after a short cultural programme, Archbishop Komitas Ohanian read the message of His Holiness Aram I in Arabic, in which the Catholicos wrote: “This book in Arabic will be adding to the historical facts that confirm the Armenian genocide, and which the international community keeps denying by condoning impunity.”
