The Armenian government should resign immediately to avoid political turmoil in the country, according to Artak Tovmasyan, the head of the Tovmasyan Charity Foundation.

“The ongoing political processes in Armenia show that there are some radical public demands.

1) The government should resign promptly to prevent the Republic of Armenia from internal political strife and further escalation of the political situation.

2) It is already a fact that the National Assembly does not represent the interests of all layers of our society, it does not function professionally, thus snap parliamentary elections should be held,” he wrote on Facebook.

Tovmasyan called for a new political agenda and involvement of patriotic people who have succeeded in their career in the political processes, regardless of whether they have been involved in politics or not thus far. “This is the imperative of the time,” he said.
