Il momento del divieto coincide con una importante assemblea di vescovi armeni prevista in Austria questa settimana e ha impedito al Catholicos di partecipare.<\/p>\n<p>Le accuse si basano sulla decisione del Catholicos di spretare il vescovo Saroyan, che in precedenza aveva pubblicamente chiesto le dimissioni del Catholicos. Il vescovo Saroyan era stato inizialmente rimosso dalla sua posizione dirigenziale come capo diocesano a gennaio, prima che i tribunali ordinassero alla chiesa di reintegrarlo temporaneamente. Il Catholicos ha risposto spretandolo completamente.<\/p>\n<p>I procuratori sostengono che la riduzione allo stato laicale costituisca un'ostruzione illegale dell'ordine del tribunale, un'affermazione che i critici dell'accusa citano come l'ultima di una lunga serie di azioni governative progettate per ridurre l'indipendenza della Chiesa apostolica armena nella gestione dei suoi affari interni.<\/p>\n<p>Gli osservatori dei diritti umani e i sostenitori della libert\u00e0 religiosa hanno iniziato a esprimersi contro l'attivit\u00e0 del governo, con un analista che ha dichiarato a International Christian Concern (ICC) in un'intervista privata che le accuse penali rappresentano un'escalation senza precedenti e indicano una chiara violazione della legittima indipendenza della chiesa.<\/p>\n<p>Gli eventi di questa settimana arrivano nel mezzo di un conflitto aspro cresciuto nell'ultimo anno tra il Primo Ministro Nikol Pashinyan e la Chiesa apostolica armena, in cui Pashinyan ha ripetutamente chiesto le dimissioni del Catholicos e ha insistito su livelli senza precedenti di supervisione e influenza del governo sugli affari della chiesa.<\/p>\n<p>La scorsa settimana, il vicepresidente degli Stati Uniti JD Vance ha visitato l'Armenia, segnando la prima volta che un presidente o vicepresidente degli Stati Uniti in carica ha visitato il paese. Tra le altre tappe, lui e sua moglie hanno visitato un memoriale che commemora il genocidio armeno dell'inizio del XX secolo. Un post sui social media del vicepresidente Vance che faceva riferimento al genocidio \u00e8 stato rapidamente cancellato, con i funzionari della Casa Bianca che hanno incolpato un addetto ai social media per il riferimento.<\/p>\n<p>Sebbene il presidente Joe Biden abbia riconosciuto il genocidio nel 2021, nessun altro presidente ha riconosciuto l'uccisione di 1,5 milioni di armeni da parte dei turchi negli anni '10 come genocidio. Questa esitazione \u00e8 spesso attribuita alla forte influenza turca sugli Stati Uniti.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Per leggere altre notizie, visita la\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.persecution.org\/news\/\">Sala Stampa dell'ICC<\/a>.
