		Vasgen Sarkissian (ÕÕ¡Õ¦Õ£Õ¥Õ¶ ÕÕ¡ÖÕ£Õ½ÕµÕ¡Õ¶, Ararat, Armenia March 5, 1959 - October 27, 1999 Yerevan), also known as Vazgen Sarkisyan, was Prime Minister of Armenia for the Republican Party of Armenia from June 1999 until his assassination.
		Sarkissian's rise to the top started when, as a former Communist Youth league organiser, he joined the growing movement for the mainly-Armenian enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh to be transferred from Azerbaijani to Armenian jurisdiction.
		Sarkissian was killed, however, along with parliament speaker and former communist leader Karen Demirchyan and several other politicians when gunmen, headed by journalist Nairi Hunanyan took over the parliament building.

		The assassinated prime minister, Vasgen Sarkissian, was widely viewed as the most powerful man in Armenia.

		Sarkissian had seen him off at the airport, following a meeting held at Kocharian's office where the main topic was Karabakh.

		Now different branches of power have control over the different branches of government, but there is no single person who controls everything, the paper writes.
		Prime Minister Vasgen Sarkissian until now has even less power compared to responsibilities that he has taken on.
		That is why the Prime Minister talks about a Cabinet reshuffle that, according to him, should take place in the autumn.

		Le premier mandat de Robert Kotcharian est marqué d'une part, par la défaite de sa coalition parlementaire, lors des élections législatives d'avril 1999, remportées par l'alliance « Unité », menée conjointement par l'ancien secrétaire général du Parti communiste d'Arménie, Karen Demirtchian, et le ministre de la Défense, Vasgen Sarkissian.
		Robert Kotcharian est contraint de nommer Vasgen Sarkissian au poste de Premier ministre, tandis que Karen Demirtchian devient président de l'Assemblée nationale.
		Un second événement d'importance est l'irruption d'hommes armés dans l'enceinte de l'Assemblée nationale, en octobre de la même année, qui se conclut par un bain de sang, au cours duquel Demirtchian et Sarkissian, ainsi que plusieurs autres politiciens de premier plan, sont assassinés par les insurgés.

	I'm absolutely disgusted - Armenian Club Forum
		Although it's much better than what we had to deal with in early and mid 90s.
		Considering we had Vasgen Sarkissian (RIP), who as the minister of defence sent his own commandos around town killing opponents and mafia lords, so that he could put up his relatives as new mafia lords and politicians.
		Compared to the corruption we saw during those times of early growing pains, today's situation is a marked progress.
