The California Courier newspaper appealed to Armenians not to
participate in the ceremony of opening the St.Cross Church on Aghtamar
island in Turkey.
Not a single Armenian should accept the invitation to take part
in the ceremony of opening the church, as the restoration of this
architectural monument is nothing but a way of Turkish propaganda,
the article says. According to the article, Armenians should boycott
and disclose the Turkish policy. If Turkish officials are guided by
sincere motives, they won't forget to take such measures as putting
a cross on the dome of the church, opening Christian service in it,
as well as handing over the church from the patronage of the Turkish
Culture and Tourism Ministry to the jurisdiction of the Armenian
Patriarchate in Constantinople, the article says.
