Vahagn Khachaturyan has served as President of Armenia since 2022, elected by the National Assembly following the end of Armen Sargsyan’s term. Under Armenia’s parliamentary system, the presidency is a largely ceremonial role — the President serves as head of state and signs legislation, but executive power rests with the Prime Minister. Prior to the presidency, Khachaturyan served as Minister of Finance and later as Minister of High-Tech Industry and Industry, making him a technocratic figure within the Civil Contract government.
His election to the presidency was uncontested among the governing party’s ranks and passed without major political controversy, reflecting the largely symbolic nature of the role. He has occasionally served as a diplomatic representative of Armenia at international forums and events where presidential presence is expected.
