MP of the 8th convocation of the National Assembly, leader of the "Armenia" faction Seyran Ohanyan wrote on his Facebook page.
"Another phase in my life has ended—the 8th convocation of the National Assembly. However, the struggle is ahead.
And today, reflecting on the path taken by the "Armenia" faction from 2021 to 2026, I can say that I have lived every moment, remaining faithful to my calling and oath—
I SERVE THE REPUBLIC OF ARMENIA,
and we have fought as best we can,
and I highly appreciate the work we have done both in the National Assembly and outside of it: in street protests during the days of the Resistance Movement and the Sacred Movement, during open meetings with our compatriots in regional gatherings, we have both been inspired by their sincere support and appreciation, and we have had the courage to listen to the criticism directed at us, while we have represented and defended the state and national interests of Artsakh and Armenia with dignity in international forums.
I have experienced great sorrow seeing the depopulation and surrender of our sacred Artsakh. On the battlefield, we had won with the strength of our spirit and at the cost of our heroes' lives, but the "real ones," deceiving the public with false promises of peace, brought war and defeat and remained silent during the days of genocide and national tragedy occurring in Artsakh.
We have traversed an incredible path, leaving a unique trace, and I am confident that the history of our service and dedication will be valued later. The spirit of our struggle has inspired and united the opposition field.
It has been an honor for me to lead the "Armenia" faction.
I thank all my colleagues, and especially the leader of the "Armenia" alliance, President of Artsakh and Armenia Robert Kocharian.
I thank all the devoted members of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation.
I thank the new forces, the members of the "Forward" party, who have joined the ranks of the "Armenia" faction, which has become dear and familiar to me.
I thank all our supporters and allies.
I thank all the truly great Armenians who, being persecuted by this government and unlawfully imprisoned, becoming political prisoners, do not retreat from their national principles and continue the struggle for the Homeland, for historical justice.
Tomorrow, the "Armenia" faction will come to the National Assembly with a new composition to continue its pro-Armenian mission. And I will continue to stand by the "Armenia" faction, within the alliance, supporting them in their further difficult service with all my experience, knowledge, and full potential.
As I have already mentioned, a phase has ended, but the struggle continues. And only together, only by uniting can we remove from power the force that continues to undermine the pillars of our state, strikes at sovereignty, tries to erase the millennia-old national identity of the Armenian people, and attacks the Armenian Apostolic Church. The force that, although condemning intolerance and corrupt morals, itself sows hatred in our society, and is itself the supreme abuser and liar, must be removed from power as soon as possible.
I wish us all success in the national struggle. And I am confident—
WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER!"
