Minasyan was the joint candidate of the opposition “Armenia” and “Strong Armenia” parliamentary factions. He previously served as Armenia’s Minister of Economy in 2016 and Minister of Nature Protection from 2016 to 2018.
Sargsyan has served on the commission since May 2021, with the latest vote securing her continued membership.
