“The Primate believes that the role of the spiritual leaders of the two countries is of great importance, and they must make every effort to establish peace,” His Holiness’ Press Secretary said.

“The Russian Orthodox Church has always rendered assistance in maintaining dialogue between the religious communities of Armenia and Azerbaijan and is ready to continue carrying out this mission,” Mr. Legoyda added.
