Before voting, Gagik Tsarukyan addressed the Armenian parliament and particularly incumbent authorities and noted: “End of your “revolution” has come.”
"I ask the parliament to take a full step into real life today. The promises were made two years ago. People were listening to what they needed to hear, and everything is a lie, empty, there is nothing made-up. What was done has been destroyed, has failed," he added.
