On August 8, at the initiative of U.S. President Donald Trump, a historic meeting was held at the White House in Washington between Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. As a result of the meeting, the two sides signed a peace agreement that politically resolves the long-standing conflict and can be considered a final settlement. This document lays the foundation for a new era of stability and cooperation in the South Caucasus.
Diplomatic sources note that this agreement is a continuation of the intensive negotiations previously held in Abu Dhabi under the mediation of the United Arab Emirates. The Washington meeting formalized those preliminary understandings and approved a concrete roadmap to guarantee peace.
The Trump administration views this outcome not only as a step for regional stability but also as a strengthening of the United States’ role as an international mediator. According to White House officials, the signed agreement will create new economic and political opportunities for Azerbaijan, Armenia, and the entire South Caucasus.
Washington-based political commentator Dr. Ahmad Shahidov told Khazar News Television that the document signed yesterday is a true historic turning point for the region:
“This is not just a diplomatic gesture but an agreement that will produce tangible results. Donald Trump personally drove this process with his political will, and his aim was not limited to peace between the two countries. This step will both strengthen the U.S. position as a global mediator and establish a solid foundation for long-term stability in the region.”
According to Dr. Ahmad Shahidov, the signed agreement goes beyond ending the conflict:
“The agreement also covers economic cooperation, opening of borders, reactivation of transport and energy corridors, and the revival of humanitarian ties. This will provide wide opportunities for regional economic integration, new trade routes, and the free movement of people.”
Dr. Ahmad Shahidov also emphasized that diplomatic circles in Washington welcomed this historic success with high appreciation and that support for the process will continue to ensure lasting peace.
