SOUTH CAUCASUS REGION, AUG 8 – The agreement aims to boost economic growth and peace in the South Caucasus with exclusive US development rights for a transit corridor named after President Trump, officials said.
- On August 8, President Donald Trump will welcome the Armenian and Azerbaijani heads of state to the White House to formalize a peace agreement that includes establishing a transit corridor between the two countries.
- The agreement follows decades of conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, an Azerbaijani region with a mostly ethnic Armenian population that broke away with Armenia's support in the late 1980s.
- The agreement establishes a 20-mile multi-modal transit corridor through Armenia, which the U.S. will have exclusive rights to develop and lease, and it will be designated as the TRIPP corridor, symbolizing peace and cooperation.
- According to White House spokesperson Anna Kelly, the TRIPP corridor will link Armenia and Azerbaijan in a way that honors their sovereignty, while opening up new opportunities for trade, transportation, and energy development across the South Caucasus.
- The agreement disbands the Minsk Group mediation framework, aims to reopen key regional corridors, boosts U.S. economic interests, and challenges longstanding Russian influence in the area.
