Event Summary

US President Donald Trump announced that Vice President JD Vance will visit Armenia and Azerbaijan in February to advance peace efforts and the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) initiative. This visit builds on a US-brokered peace agreement signed in August between Armenia and Azerbaijan, aimed at resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The TRIPP initiative seeks to reopen regional transport links, connecting mainland Azerbaijan to Azerbaijan — Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic via Armenia. During the visit, the United States plans to strengthen its strategic partnership with Azerbaijan, facilitate an Agreement for Peaceful Nuclear Cooperation with Armenia, organize deals for semiconductor makers, and sell defense equipment to Azerbaijan. Armenia has also agreed to give the United States a significant stake in the development of the corridor.
