Galstanyan also called for an extraordinary session of the Armenian parliament to be convened on Tuesday, June 11, in order to dismiss the government of Nikol Pashinyan.
Demonstrations demanding Pashinyan's resignation began in Armenia a few weeks ago, after the country's authorities agreed on the delimitation and demarcation of part of the border with Azerbaijan. Yerevan handed over control of four border forces to Baku, which the opposition perceived as a territorial concession.
Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan became the leader of the protests. He appealed to the head of the Armenian Apostolic Church to remove him from the ministry because of his intention to participate in the political struggle. After that, the opposition Movement "Tavush for the sake of the motherland" nominated him as a candidate for prime minister.

On April 23, Azerbaijan and Armenia began delimiting their border based on Geodetic measurements near several villages on both sides.
