Donald Trump calls Armenian, Azerbaijani leaders `two wonderful men` 

ArmInfo.  In a post in Truth Social, U.S. President Donald Trump called RA Premier Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev "two wonderful men" and 'Great  Leaders."

"Great Honor being with the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol  Pashinyan, and the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, as we  signed a Peace Treaty after decades of War and Death. These are two  wonderful men, and Great Leaders. They are now good friends of  mine!", the U.S. President wrote. 

On August 8, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani  President Ilham Aliyev signed a seven-point joint "peace declaration"  in Washington. It provides for a joint appeal to the Organization for  Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to end the OSCE Minsk  process and related structures, as well as the creation of a  transport corridor through Armenian territory that will connect  Azerbaijan with its Nakhchivan exclave, surrounded by Armenia, Turkey  and Iran. The TRIPP (Trump Route for International Peace and  Prosperity) project, a 42-km road in southern Armenia that will hand  over control of the road to the United States for 99 years, according  to experts, is capable of significantly changing the geopolitical  situation in the South Caucasus.

On the same day, the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan  initialed a peace agreement, which consists of 17 articles. The  preamble of the document states that the Republic of Armenia and the  Republic of Azerbaijan, recognizing the urgent need to establish a  just, comprehensive and lasting peace in the region, striving to  promote the achievement of this goal through the establishment of  interstate relations, guided by the Charter of the United Nations,  the Declaration on Principles of International Law concerning  Friendly Relations and Cooperation among States in accordance with  the Charter of the United Nations (1970), the Final Act of the  Helsinki Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (1975) and  the Almaty Declaration of 21 December 1991, and striving to develop  relations based on the norms and principles enshrined in the said  documents, expressing their mutual will to establish good-neighborly  relations among themselves, agreed to establish peace and interstate  relations.
