US President Donald Trump claims that it was his efforts that led to the end of the Karabakh conflict. He stated that he is proud to have prevented the deaths of millions of people.
Trump mentioned a phone call with President Putin, in which the latter allegedly praised the US role in resolving the conflict. He also spoke about a meeting between representatives of Armenia and Azerbaijan at the White House, which, in his opinion, ended in reconciliation.
"Representatives of the two countries arrived at the White House. At first, they kept their distance, but gradually grew closer and closer. An hour later, they were already hugging each other as a sign of peace. It was truly amazing," the US President said.
Today, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan expressed Yerevan's readiness to consult with Baku on the signing of a peace treaty. He emphasized the importance of moving toward the practical implementation of the peace process, including the institutionalization and ratification of the agreement. Mirzoyan also noted that important issues, such as border demarcation and humanitarian issues, remain unresolved.
