Matthew Miller, US State Department Spokesperson referred to the issue of Armenian Quarter in Jerusalem during a press briefing. “Top authorities in the Armenian Quarter expressed deep concern that the Israeli Government was using the conflict in Gaza to push out a lot of Armenian Christians from the Armenian Quarter. Any response to those concerns?”, a journalist asked Miller
“So no specific response to that. But as we have said on a number of occasions, we do not want to see the Government of Israel take any steps that would escalate tensions”, the spokesperson said.
