Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has announced plans to hold a nationwide vote on adopting a new constitution in 2027.
In an interview with Public Television, Pashinyan stated that constitutional changes are part of the government’s agenda and are set for 2027. He noted that some members of the ruling party believe the process should coincide with the 2026 parliamentary elections to give the political agenda more clarity. While he described it as an internal political matter, he acknowledged that the changes could have regional and global implications.
Pashinyan has previously emphasized his political goal of creating a new constitution that would be more closely connected to the citizens of Armenia.
Azerbaijan has repeatedly insisted that a peace agreement with Armenia requires removing obstacles, including territorial claims in Armenia’s constitution and Yerevan’s position on the OSCE Minsk Group.
In September 2024, Pashinyan suggested that constitutional amendments might be necessary to facilitate a peace deal with Azerbaijan. In a national address on February 19, he stressed the importance of holding a nationwide referendum to approve the new constitution.
