United Communist Party of Armenia

United Communist Party of Armenia ( _hy. Հայաստանի Միավորված Կոմունիստական Կուսակցության , abbreviated ՀՄԿԿ, "Hayastani Miatsial Komunistakan Kusaktsutyun") is a political party in Armenia. It was formed on July 7 2003 through the merger of the Renewed Communist Party of Armenia, Armenian Labour Communist Party, Armenian Workers Union, Union of Communists of Armenia, Armenian Marxist Party and the Party of Intellectuals.

HMKK held its first congress on March 25 2004. Yuri Manoukian was elected First Secretary of the party. A 77-member Central Committee was elected and a 17-member Politburo.

HMKK considers itself as a 'constructive opposition party'. It has closer links to the government than the main Armenian Communist Party and does not join opposition fronts.

HMKK has declared its support for the presidential bid of Defence Minister Serzh Sarkisian. [http://www.rferl.org/reports/caucasus-report/2005/05/18-300505.asp]
