U.S. presidential envoy Steven Witkoff said all the conditions are in place for Armenia and Azerbaijan to reach a peace agreement, setting this process apart from many other conflicts still unfolding around the world.
According to 1lurer.am, Witkoff referred to the Washington summit held on August 8, 2025, and shared his view of the approach taken by the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
He said the leaders of both countries had shown pragmatism and maturity, recognizing that a peace agreement was a better answer to the long-running conflict than any alternative.
Witkoff also stressed that President Donald Trump had stood behind the process with his full support.
On August 8, the U.S., Armenia and Azerbaijan issued a joint statement marking the first anniversary of the Peace Summit held at the White House on August 8, 2025. The statement said the joint declaration, backed by the U.S., gave Armenia and Azerbaijan a clear roadmap for consolidating peace, achieving prosperity and deepening partnership.
