In the wake of President Biden’s inauguration as America’s 46th chief executive, Diocesan Primate Bishop Daniel sent a letter to the White House conveying pressing concerns of the Armenian-American community, the Eastern Diocese of the Armenian Church of America informs.

Among these concerns, he said, are ensuring security for Armenia and Armenian communities in the Middle East; the health of our homeland in the aftermath of war and in the midst of the ongoing pandemic crisis; official recognition for Artsakh; and protection of Armenian and Christian heritage sites.

His appeal concludes: “Mr. President, as a man of faith yourself, I know that these concerns of an ancient Apostolic Christian nation are deeply meaningful to you. Please know that in pursuing the above objectives, the Armenian Church of America and its people are eager to support and assist your administration in any way we can.”
