Archbishop Mikael's First Message from Prison

4 OCT 2025 14:12

MPs from the "Hayastan" faction of the RA National Assembly, Agnesa Khamoyan and Gegham Manukyan, visited Archbishop Mikael, through whom the Archbishop conveyed his letter:

Dears,

This evil power, composed of mediocrities and absolute nobodies and their pathetic servants, has brought another immoral scenario to its conclusion with my illegal and fabricated conviction, which is incomparable to the loss of our native Artsakh, the thousands of victims, and the presence of the missing and prisoners.
This will remain the shame and disgrace of this government, although no matter how much you spit on a shameless person's face, it will seem like rain to them. I promise to be an even greater danger to them now than I was until today. That's all for now…
Dear people of Gyumri, relatives,
Congratulations on our city's day, and thank you for your support and backing. I wish that you have a good time today and that smiles never leave your beautiful faces. I have tried to add to that smile for the last 26 years, and today your joy will be the best gift to me, inside the prison walls, where God is always with me.

- Archbishop Mikael Ajapahyan
