U.S.-based Newsmax television channel has aired a special programme devoted to the landmark Washington summit between the leaders of Azerbaijan and Armenia, mediated by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The broadcast explored the significance of the meeting, its regional and global implications, and Washington’s role as a key mediator in securing the agreement.
The guest on the programme was Azerbaijan’s ambassador to the United States, Khazar Ibrahim, who hailed the summit as “a historic moment.”
“As my president said, it happened in the number one capital in the world under the leadership of President Trump, who is a peacemaker,” Ibrahim told Newsmax. “It’s quite notable that here, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed this joint declaration. Now the doors, windows, hearts-everything is open to have real peace in the region, to integrate not only with neighbours, but with the entire world.”
The ambassador reflected on more than three decades of conflict, including the occupation of Azerbaijani territories, ethnic cleansing, and the displacement of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) who still cannot return home due to landmines. He contrasted years of unsuccessful negotiations mediated by the OSCE with what he described as a “diplomatic miracle” achieved through President Trump’s involvement.
“Within a very short period of time, President Trump managed to help us,” Ibrahim said, crediting both direct talks between Baku and Yerevan and Trump’s personal role in advancing the process.
“When you talk to each other, that’s very important, because at the end of the day, it’s you who are going to live with each other,” he added. “But at the same time, when you have a statesman, a leader, and a peacemaker like Donald Trump, it always helps.”
Ibrahim concluded that with the signing of the joint declaration, “all the roads are open for peace and prosperity of the region.”
