OFFICIAL STATEMENT

Statement on the Indictment of the Catholicos of All Armenians

The Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU) is deeply concerned about the persecution of the leadership of the Armenian Church. The Government of Armenia’s criminal indictment of His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, and six other bishops—arising from an internal ecclesiastical matter concerning the leadership of a diocese—raises serious questions about religious freedom and respect for the rule of law.
