Ghalachyan was appointed to the post on December 28, 2020.
Speaking to the MFA staff at a farewell meeting former acting foreign minister Ara Aivazian said, "I have assumed this post with big difficulty but when I assumed it there was one criteria for me – this ministry must strictly observe our sovereignty, independence, our state and national interests. My decision to resign is agreed with this reason – for no one to ever doubt that this ministry may take a step or agree to ideas, initiatives which are against our statehood, our national and state interests."
