The Artsakh Conservative Party (Armenian: Արցախի պահպանողական կուսակցություն, romanized: Artsakhi pahpanoghakan kusaktsutyun) is an Armenian political party in Artsakh.
The Artsakh Conservative Party was established on 26 February 2019.[2] Its founder and current party leader is David Babayan.
On 5 February 2020, it was announced that Babayan would run for the presidency of Artsakh and that he would lead the party in the 2020 Artsakhian general election.[3][4]
The party maintains a centre-right political position and advocates for Artsakh’s sovereignty, maintaining a high level of security and strengthening democracy, social justice and environmental protection.[5][6]
Following the 2020 election, the party gained just 2.87% of the votes after the first round of voting, failing to qualify for the second round. Furthermore, the party failed to gain any seats in the National Assembly. Currently, the party acts as an extra-parliamentary force.
