YEREVAN (Mediamax)””Director of National Archives of Armenia Amatuni Virabyan stated today that during the visit of Pope Francis to Armenia, the Armenian party will request permission to study documents on the Armenian nation and the Armenian Genocide kept in the Vatican Secret Archives.

“The Vatican Secret Archives are considered one of the largest in the world; they contain a great number of documents on countries and nations that Vatican contacted with. Armenian people had contacts with Vatican since 3rd, 4th centuries, and these Archives keep plenty of documents on our history, which have not been revealed or published,”
