The head of Dashnaktsutyun parliamentary group Armen Rustamyan; parliamentary group secretaries of Armenian National Congress (ANC) opposition bloc and Heritage, Aram Manukyan and Ruben Hakobyan expressed intention to form an opposition at Armenian National Assembly sitting. However, Heritage Armenia party, which earlier refused to join the ruling coalition, refrained from making a statement.

Following the statement, Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan briefed the parliamentarians on Armenian government’s program and delivered a report of activities completed. The PM specifically stressed the government’s anti-crisis program and struggle to overcome financial crisis consequences, noting that not a single program was terminated or downsized in crisis years.
