The Armenian unions and the press in Tehran condemn the anti-state action of the ARF.
The Diocesan Council of the Armenian Diocese of Tehran paid tribute to a certain part of the community. Using the "suitable occasion" of the Holy Liturgy offered on the occasion of Ascension Day, on May 9, St. He organized an anti-Armenian rally in Sargis Church.
So, the THT Diocesan Council is openly corrupting the church because the pro-state public visiting the church on the occasion of a pan-Christian holiday should be used for evil purposes and presented as an anti-state mass.
It is the sacred duty of the Armenian Apostolic Church, as a pan-Armenian structure, to preach solidarity and unity, treat all its children equally, and not be subject to the whims of any section. The authority of the Tehran Diocesan Council is limited to the Armenian community, so it has nothing to do with the internal political life of the Republic of Armenia.
We urge the THT Diocesan Council to stay within the limits of its mission outlined by the diocese's charter, to defame the name of the community with such steps, and to disobey the adventurous and irresponsible orders of the ARF party, which is sitting in their warm homes and calling Armenia to enter the war, disrupting its present and future. in the message, which was joined by the "Raffy" complex of the Armenian National University, the Iranian-Armenian National and Cultural Union, the Armenian Center of Geologists, Majidieh district, the Unity Alliance, and the "Arax" weekly newspaper.
