U.S. President Donald Trump will host Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan at the White House on Friday for the formal signing of a peace agreement aimed at ending decades of conflict between the two neighbours. The ceremony is scheduled to begin around 2:30 p.m., according to a U.S. official.
"This isn't just about Armenia. It's not just about Azerbaijan. It's about the entire region, and they know that that region is going to be safer and more prosperous with President Trump," a senior administration official said.
"What's going to happen here with the Trump route is, this isn't charity. This is a highly investable entity," said one senior administration official, adding that at least nine companies had been in touch in recent days to discuss possible investments.
White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly confirmed that the agreement would be accompanied by a series of bilateral deals with both countries covering energy, technology, trade, infrastructure, economic cooperation and border security.
