A spokesman told media that Mnatsakanyan had accomplished “all short-term tasks set to him” after he assumed office “under the instruction of [Prosperous Armenia leader] Gagik Tsarukyan” last year.

Petrosyan said he resigned for health reasons, while the party maintained that he had not performed up to expectation.
