The United States, represented by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, is advancing a corridor project connecting Armenia and Azerbaijan, known as the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP). This initiative aims to enhance economic ties and peace in the region, amidst Armenia's shifting alliances from Russia towards the West. Agreements were signed to foster strategic partnerships and economic cooperation, with a focus on critical minerals. The situation remains delicate due to Armenia's historical ties with Russia and its relations with Iran.
