YEREVAN. – On the occasion of the Jewish New Year, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan on Sunday issued a congratulatory message to Armenia’s Jewish community.  

“I wish progress and success to each and every one of you and to the entire Jewish community of Armenia. I also wish that you preserve and enrich your language, your spiritual values and culture, which are Armenia’s cultural diversity and richness as well.   

May the coming New Year be a year of peace and new accomplishments for Armenia’s Jews. May the Jewish community, together with the entire people of Armenia, never confront inhuman phenomena such as national and religious discrimination, or exclusion. May the Jewish community continue its age-old and undisrupted course, shoulder to shoulder with the Armenians and other communities,” the President’s message reads in particular.
