I am going to the National Assembly to become your representative. Araik Harutyunyan

Former head of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's office, Araik Harutyunyan, wrote on his Facebook page: “Today marks the end of my more than 5 years of service as the head of the Prime Minister’s office. As I have already mentioned, this was a tremendous experience for me, and I have dedicated all my knowledge and skills to the Republic of Armenia. I am grateful to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan for this opportunity; together we have overcome numerous difficulties, strengthening our statehood, which I am very proud of.

From 2018 to 2021, I was elected as a member of parliament three times in the sixth, seventh, and eighth convocations, but I declined the mandate to hold positions in the executive branch. Now I am going to the National Assembly to become #YourRepresentative. Together with my colleagues, we will demonstrate that this is a crucial institution in a parliamentary country. I will dedicate my efforts and capabilities to this goal. Keep your heads high and your spirits high. The perpetuity of the Republic of Armenia is no longer just a fact.”
