    Armenian Catholicos, Caucasian Muslims' leader to meet on Contact Line in 2012

    19:01 - 04.01.12


    Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II may meet the chairman of the
    Caucasian Muslims Office, Allahshukur Pashazade, on the Contact Line
    between Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan later this year, according to
    Haji Sabir Hasanli, the deputy chairman of the Office.

    Speaking to the Azerbaijani news website Salamnews.az, Hasanli said
    the Caucasian Muslims' leader had proposed organizing the meeting his
    recent visit to Armenia.

    `The Armenian side has accepted the proposal, but the meeting date was
    not fixed. It may take place by the end of the year,' he said, adding
    that such meetings will be useful in terms of the settlement of the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    Hasanli recalled that the meeting between Pashazade, Garegin II, and
    Russian Patriarch Kiril II was held in Armenia late in 2011.

    `It is necessary to recall the snipers from the Contact Line between
    the Armenian and Azerbaijani armed troops. That will reduce the number
    of victims,' he explained.

    Pazshazade visited Yerevan on November 29, 2012 to attend the CIS
    Interfaith Council's Session.

    On the sidelines of the closed-door meeting, he met with the Russian
    and Armenian patriarchs. The three religious leaders then issued a
    joint statement, calling for the withdrawal of snipers from the
    Contact Line.
