    Legal status of Armenian Church in Georgia will secure religious heritage - MP

    July 02, 2011 | 20:02


    YEREVAN. - The fact that Georgian Parliament amended the Civil code,
    granting 5 religions denominations, Armenian Apostolic Church among
    them, status of legal entity of public law will greatly contribute to
    preservation of Armenian religious heritage in Georgia, ruling
    Armenian Republican Party MP Shirak Torosyan told Armenian
    News-NEWS.am.

    He stressed that this decision will ease the inclusion of disputed
    churches into Armenian Apostolic Church heritage. The MP emphasized
    that many issues remain unresolved, in particular, granting of the
    Diocese Status to AAC Javakhk churches.

    "You will not find another spot in the world where more than 150
    thousand Armenians do not have a Diocese of AAC", - said Torosyan.

    Welcoming the decision of the Georgian parliament, he nevertheless
    said that the authorities of this country must not wait for the
    pressure exerted by the minorities to settle their issues.
