ETCHMIADZIN.- Every corner of Armenia is unique but Etchmiadzin stands out, Armenian President said.

On Wednesday presidential candidate Serzh Sargsyan visited Etchmiadzin, spiritual capital of Armenia, Armenian News - NEWS.am correspondent reports.

“Holy Etchmiadzin is unique as it has represented not only a spiritual but also secular power for centuries when Armenia did not have statehood,” Sargsyan said during a campaign meeting.  

Underscoring Etchmiadzin’s importance for all Armenians, Sargsyan said it was a great responsibility to speak to its citizens. He asked for their votes so that they “together could build a secure Armenia.”
