The Reformist Party unveiled its election manifesto ahead of the June 7 polls as Friday marked the first day of the campaigning season.

Key points presented by party president, former lawmaker Vahan Babayan, as well as the party’s candidate for prime minister, former Defense Minister Vagharshak Harutyunyan, include adopting a new national security concept in response to shifting geopolitical conditions, addressing demographic challenges through a state-led immigration program, and introducing constitutional reforms to limit the PM to a single term while tightening eligibility requirements for the office.

The program also suggests making voting a civic duty, replacing the deposit-based election system with a signature-based mechanism, and significantly expanding state involvement in the economy.

In social policy, it calls for free higher education and healthcare, along with substantial salary increases for teachers and doctors.

It proposes positioning Armenia as a regulated and attractive regional crypto hub to attract investment, create jobs, and improve economic transparency.

Following the presentation of the party manifesto at a press event, party members rallied in Yerevan.
