Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan signed a decree dismissing Viktor Dallakyan as the deputy head of presidential administration Oct.12, RIA Novosti reported citing the website of the Armenian president.

Dallakyan also represented Armenia’s president in the national assembly (parliament).

Dallakyan said that he resigned from the post of deputy chair of the presidential staff and the post of president’s permanent parliament representative, as he leaves Armenia’s Republican Party and returns to active politics.

Dallakyan announced his intention to actively participate in the country’s parliamentary elections of 2017 as well.

Armenian media previously reported that Dallakyan forms a party called "Shrjadardz" which can be headed by former Defence Minister Seyran Ohanyan.
