In 1991, he was one of the most active opponents of Serzh Sargsyan, who demanded his resignation together with Andranik Margaryan and other RPA members, down to presenting Robert Kocharyan with an ultimatum.

At present, however, Galust Sahakyan offered journalists to call on the people to “pray for Serzh Sargsyan not to resign.”

At the Pastark (Argument) discussion club, when asked if the third countries may force Serzh Sargsyan into signing a solution that would be unfavorable for the Armenian side, Sahakyan, with emotion typical of clergymen, stated: “No one can pressure Serzh Sargsyan in this matter. He is not a person to be pressured. We must teach the people to pray for Serzh Sargsyan never to think about resignation. We will find ourselves in such wind and weather…”

It is a pity Mr. Sahakyan did not explain whom he meant by “we” – Armenia or himself and the Repablican Party of Armenia (RPA).
