tert.am I hope the letter hasn't reached yet, said Archbishop Nathan Hovhannisyan, the director of the External Relations and Protocol Department of the Mother See, in response to a question about how the Mother See views the fact that the Patriarch of Constantinople, Sahak Mashalyan, has not reacted in any way to the start of the trial regarding the Catholicos and 6 bishops' "case."
"Perhaps the mail is not working well," joked Archbishop Nathan Hovhannisyan.
He also responded to a journalist's question about rumors circulating that the Patriarch of Constantinople is claiming the throne of the Catholicos.
"I don't know what they are claiming when the Catholicos, thank God, is alive and well, and may God grant him a long life," said the Archbishop Nathan.
