This is an unconstitutional and illegal process

Chairman Vahe Begoyan: “If the Catholicos is accused of overthrowing the order, this is absurd. This is his direct function, which is protected by the Constitution. The Church is absolutely independent in its hierarchal activities. Today we need to talk about the legal side. This is an unconstitutional and illegal process, which directly contradicts the clear rule given to the Church by the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia to act freely within its hierarchal order.”
