Armenia–NATO talks were held in Yerevan as Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan met NATO Deputy Secretary General Radmila Shekerinska to discuss cooperation and regional security in the South Caucasus.

According to a statement from the prime minister’s office, the meeting focused on strengthening the Armenia–NATO partnership, alongside broader cooperation on security and stability.

Pashinyan said Armenia attached importance to working with international partners, including NATO, to promote peace and stability in the region, the statement added.

Shekerinska welcomed the ongoing partnership between NATO and Armenia and thanked the prime minister for what she described as a productive exchange.

The talks also addressed recent regional developments following the signing of a joint declaration by Pashinyan, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and U.S. President Donald Trump at a trilateral summit in Washington in August.

In this context, the two sides exchanged views on efforts to unblock regional transport links, including the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) and Armenia’s Crossroads of Peace initiative.

Earlier on Thursday, Shekerinska held separate meetings in Yerevan with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, Parliamentary Speaker Alen Simonyan and Defence Minister Suren Papikyan.
