**Armenia Alliance** ([Armenian](/source/Armenian_language): Հայաստան դաշինք, [romanized](/source/Romanization_of_Armenian): *Hayastan dashink’*, **HD**) is an [Armenian](/source/Armenia) [political alliance](/source/Political_alliance). It was founded in 2021 and is currently led by former President of Armenia [Robert Kocharyan](/source/Robert_Kocharyan).[7][8] The party is [pro-Russian](/source/Russophilia), opposes Armenia's membership in the [European Union](/source/European_Union) and [NATO](/source/NATO), and fully supports membership in the [CSTO](/source/Collective_Security_Treaty_Organization) and the [Eurasian Economic Union](/source/Eurasian_Economic_Union).[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

## History

During the [2020–2021 Armenian protests](/source/2020%E2%80%932021_Armenian_protests), Robert Kocharyan endorsed the [Homeland Salvation Movement](/source/Homeland_Salvation_Movement), a political alliance calling for the resignation of the Armenian Prime Minister [Nikol Pashinyan](/source/Nikol_Pashinyan). Kocharyan later announced he would be re-entering politics with the foundation of a new political alliance. The Armenia Alliance held its founding ceremony in Yerevan on 9 May 2021 and consisted the [Armenian Revolutionary Federation](/source/Armenian_Revolutionary_Federation), the [Reborn Armenia](/source/Reborn_Armenia) party, and is led by Robert Kocharyan who remained non-partisan.[9][10]

The alliance had confirmed that it would participate in the [2021 Armenian parliamentary elections](/source/2021_Armenian_parliamentary_election).[11][12][13] The [One Armenia Party](/source/One_Armenia_Party) announced it would nominate a single candidate to participate in the elections as part of the Armenia Alliance.[14]

Following the 2021 election, the alliance won 21.1% of the popular vote, gaining 29 seats in the [National Assembly](/source/National_Assembly_of_Armenia) and becoming the official opposition. Robert Kocharyan, who headed the alliance's electoral list, declined to take his seat in the National Assembly.[15] [Seyran Ohanyan](/source/Seyran_Ohanyan) was elected to lead the alliance's faction in parliament.[16]

On 4 July 2022, Arthur Ghazinian, leader of the One Armenia Party announced that he was renouncing his parliamentary seat from the Armenia Alliance faction.[17]

On 29 November 2022, Reborn Armenia members of parliament decided to terminate their positions in the National Assembly.[18]

Tevanyan was a former member of parliament with the Armenia Alliance, but stepped down in order to run in the municipal election. Following the election, the Mother Armenia Alliance won 12 seats in the [Yerevan City Council](/source/Yerevan_City_Council).[19]
