The
Embassy of Armenia to the Holy See has joined the campaign in support of
persecuted Christians, #StandTogether. This is their way of demonstrating their
firm commitment to the defence of religious freedom, according to Rome Reports.
The
#StandTogether project, as affirmed by one of its creators, Roberto Fontolán,
seeks to bring to light the reality thousands of people face who are denied
religious freedom.
“The
goal is to share valuable testimonies of Christians who are sacrificing
everything for their faith. Through the Stand Together platform, we gather
stories of hope, reconciliation and courage from people of different
countries,” Roberto Fontolán said.
The
Ambassador of Armenia, Mikayel Minasyan, confirmed his commitment to this
cause.
“The
Embassy of Armenia to the Holy See is a long time supporter of initiatives that
give a voice to the suffering of Christians in the Middle East or implement
specific actions enforcing these communities,” the Ambassador said.
The
meeting, held at the Palazzo Colonna in Rome, was attended by the President of
the Constitutional Court of Armenia, as well as representatives of the Holy
See, the Order of Malta and numerous other countries who are accredited to the
Vatican.
The
gala dinner culminated with a performance with Armenian music.
