Sahak II Mashalian is the 85th Armenian Orthodox Patriarch of Constantinople, born on March 17, 1962, in Istanbul, Turkey. He became patriarch in 2019 amidst controversial elections that saw the Turkish government prevent candidates from Armenia from participating. His election was contested, and he has been vocal about issues affecting the Armenian community, including the U.S. Senate's recognition of the Armenian Genocide, despite being from a family of genocide survivors. The Patriarchate operates independently while acknowledging the spiritual leadership of the Catholicos of Armenia.
