Representative of ARF Tavush Regional Committee, deputy of NA faction "Armenia" Garnik Danielyanwrites:
"Partners of the "Armenia" factionAgnessa Khamoyan/ Agnessa Khamoyanand Aghvan Vardanyan, we visited Saints Bagrat and Mikael in the isolation cell of the National Security Service.
The spirit, mood and determination of the Holy Fathers were in place. Once again we were greeted with their typical calmness and optimism.
Saints Bagrat and Michael, being in prison, always mention our nation and homeland in their daily prayers. It is the call of the bishops that in these times full of trials, we should all unite around the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church. Let's not give up at any moment, let's not back down from the fight for truth and justice.
If our spiritual fathers accept their persecutions with honor and dignity, then we, being free, have no right to complain or hesitate at any moment.
Isolation of saints is a great shame and stigma for the existing authorities. But I am sure that if we are united, we will turn over this shameful page as well.
