The EU and the United States welcome the peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Turkey sees new opportunities in the region and expressed its satisfaction. Confirm from Istanbul

The Turkish Foreign Ministry in a statement described the step that took place with US mediation “as an extremely important development for promoting regional peace and stability”.

The announcement also praises the Trump government for its contribution to the process. “A historic opportunity emerged for the South Caucasus to achieve peace and prosperity. As Turkey we will continue to contribute to the efforts aimed at exploiting this opportunity and support the efforts of our brother Azerbaijan, “the statement said.

Undoubtedly, President Trump’s meeting in Washington with Azero President Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nicole Pasinian opens a new page in strategic, political and economic developments in the southern Caucasus with the creation of the corridor for international peace.

With this agreement, the former enemies Azerbaijan and Armenia restore their relations and work together in large projects.

New Opportunities for Ankara

Ankara maintains extremely good relations with Baku, even calling themselves “a nation, two states” cooperate in everything, economics, energy and the army.

With Armenia things were different. Ankara’s diplomatic relations with Gerevan had been interrupted since 1993, but began to be restored by 2021 with symbolic moves, as with the presence of Prime Minister Pasinian at the re -election ceremony of President Erdogan in 2023.

There is no doubt that yesterday’s agreement gave new momentum to the region, in collaboration with Azerbaijan-Armenia, increased US influence in the region by setting off Russia and creating new opportunities for Ankara.
