History
The alliance was founded on 22 June 2019 and consists of the Hayk Party, the Christian People's Revival Party, the Nzhdehian Tseghakron Party, and the Social Justice Party. The alliance does not have any representation within the National Assembly and currently acts as an extra-parliamentary force.[2]
During the 2020−2021 Armenian protests, the alliance called for the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and for free elections to follow.[3][4] The alliance is against holding the 2021 Armenian constitutional referendum and opposes any of the former leaders of Armenia, including Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan, of returning to power.[5][6][7]
