The HKK is the largest communist party in Armenia, which was founded in 1991 and is a successor to the ruling party of the Armenian SSR . Party chairmen were Sergei Badaljan from 1991 to 1999, Vladimir Darbinyan from 1999 to 2003, Ruben Towmasyan from 2003 to 2013 and Tachat Sargsyan from 2013 to 2017. Apparently since 2017, Yerjanik Ghazaryan has been the party's "First Secretary".

In the parliamentary elections on May 25, 2003 , the party won 2.11%, but this was not enough for any of the total of 131 seats. Since then, the party has not been able to win a seat in the parliamentary elections that followed.

The party traditionally advocates close political and economic ties with Russia . It publishes the Hajastani Komunist and Pravda Armenii as a party newspaper .
