"Zhoghovurd" daily received information from government circles, according to which Nikol Pashinyan has set a goal to dethrone the Catholicos of All Armenians on October 27, the day of his enthronement. Nikol Pashinyan and his teammates "present" the repression against the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church as "necessity of church transformation" and have set a goal to take decisive steps in the direction of the church's internal management by October 27. Let's remind: it was on October 27, 1999 that the Catholicos of All Armenians ascended the throne, and after 26 years the CP decided to dispute the results of the Catholicos elections by attacking the church.
Until then, the law enforcement officers will continue the pressure on the clergy, especially those who are relatives or close to the Catholicos, as was the case with the two-month detention of Bishop Mkrtich Proshyan, the leader of the diocese of Aragatsotn, the uncle of the Catholicos. They will break into the church without hesitation. According to the official representatives, "the clergy are also citizens, and if someone violates the law, they must answer."
"Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper had already informed that in the near future the prime minister plans to participate in the Hovhannavank liturgy, which was organized by the priest Ter Aram, who caused the arrest of 17 clergymen and is sponsored by the CP. There, Nikol Pashinyan will give a triumphant start to his program:
On the day of the enthronement of Catholicos of all Armenians Garegin II, planning to dethrone him." Details in today's issue of "Zhoghovurd" daily.
