The Impeachment Union (Armenian: Իմպիչմենթ դաշինք) was a political party in Armenia.

History

[edit]

Following the 2007 Armenian parliamentary elections, the party won no seats, winning a popular vote of just 1.29%. The union's leader was Nikol Pashinyan.[1] The union's main goal was the impeachment of the then president Robert Kocharyan.[2] The party officially dissolved in 2008, after the nomination of Levon Ter-Petrosyan as candidate in the Armenian presidential election and party members opted to merge with Levon Ter-Petrosyan's led Armenian National Congress party.
