On June 15, 1988, under the pressure and with representation of the movement in the Armenian Supreme Soviet, this body adopted positive resolution on reunification of two national units. The PANM became the ruling party when it swept the 1990 elections. The party lost its majority when Ter-Petrossian resigned as president of the republic in 1998 and became an opposition party.
