Wings of Unity

Last updated: May 29, 2026

Wings of Unity is an Armenian political party led by Arman Tatoyan , who served as Armenia’s Human Rights Defender from 2018 to 2022. Tatoyan gained international attention during the 2020 Nagorno Karabakh war and its aftermath for his documentation of human rights violations and his advocacy on behalf of Armenian prisoners of war held by Azerbaijan.

His decision to transition from an independent human rights role into party politics reflects the broader pattern of civil society figures entering the electoral arena ahead of the June 7, 2026 elections. Groong episodes covering Wings of Unity examine Tatoyan’s platform, his foreign policy positions, and how his human rights background shapes the party’s agenda on Artsakh , POWs, and the peace process with Azerbaijan.

This Week in Review examines the tightening political climate in Armenia ahead of the June 2026 parliamentary elections. Asbed and Hovik discuss Marco Rubio’s sudden Armenia visit, new polling from IRI, MPG, and CAEAC, and what the wide gaps in voter disclosure may reveal about hidden opposition support. The episode also covers TRIPP, “Western Azerbaijan” rhetoric, public trust in the Armenian Apostolic Church, and the growing use of arrests, threats, and state pressure against opposition figures. The discussion centers on Pashinyan’s escalating campaign rhetoric, including his “Why are you alive?” outburst, and what it signals about the stakes of the coming election.
