Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan defended the U.S.-brokered peace accord, saying it's “not a zero-sum game” and a step toward regional cooperation benefiting all, including Russia and Iran.
Pashinyan downplayed any potential backlash from neighbouring powers Iran and Russia following the U.S.-brokered peace agreement last week (8 August), which ended more than three decades of conflict in the South Caucasus.
In an exclusive Fox News Digital interview, he praised U.S. President Donald Trump and his envoy for their role in brokering the framework, emphasising that the deal is not directed at any third party and may even offer strategic advantages to Moscow and Tehran.
He said the agreement “contains quite tangible benefits for Iran and for Russia as well,” including possible railway links connecting the Persian Gulf to the Black Sea.
Despite opposition from Armenian nationalists and the Republican Party, who view the accord as a betrayal and demand full transparency, Pashinyan remains confident.
“We expect to have some criticism, and that’s part of democracy. But we are confident we made the right decision.”
