Who said he has been excommunicated? Papoyan

Minister of Economy Gevorg Papoyan also attends the Divine Liturgy served by Father Aram, the spiritual leader of Hovhannisavank, who was declared excommunicated by Karekin II.

In response to reporters' questions about attending the celebration of the excommunicated priest, Papoyan stated, “Who said he has been excommunicated? Decisions made by those who have violated many rules established by the Canon of the Armenian Apostolic Church and committed sacrilege hold no value for me. Those who adhere to the Canon are our spiritual fathers.”
