Narek Karapetyan

Last updated: May 29, 2026

Narek Karapetyan is a prominent candidate on the Strong Armenia Alliance list for the June 7, 2026 Armenian parliamentary elections. His public profile rose sharply in the pre-election period, reflected in a 900% year-on-year increase in search volume ahead of the vote.

Groong episodes covering Karapetyan examine his positions on the key issues of the 2026 election campaign — the peace process with Azerbaijan, the Zangezur Corridor and TRIPP, Armenia’s foreign policy orientation, and the right of return for displaced Armenians from Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh) — as well as his role within the Strong Armenia Alliance led by Samvel Karapetyan.
