ArmInfo. The statement of the US president on the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, as expected, caused a new escalation in the Middle East, which has been shaking the wars in recent decades. This is stated in the statement of the Ramkavar Azatakan party.
As the party's press service informs, Trump's statement threatens with new bloodshed in the region. "In our opinion, this decision also threatens the Armenian Jerusalem, our already shattered community, and especially the Armenian Patriarchate. Trump's decision and the order of the Israeli government can break the fragile balance that exists in the interconfessional and interethnic coexistence of Ancient Jerusalem. We find it important to consider the position of the Armenian Jerusalem, it is necessary to consistently strengthen its protection. Considering the above circumstances, the Central Committee of the Ramkavar Azatakan proposes to create in Yerevan a state and religious central headquarters with the participation of representatives of the state and the church, which will coordinate all internal and external work of Armenian Jerusalem and the Armenian Patriarchate," the statement reads.
