There are claims that U.S. President Donald Trump will host Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan for peace talks in Washington on Friday. No official confirmation has yet been issued by any of the parties involved.
The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that the meeting would take place at the White House on Friday, 8 August, as part of an effort to broker a peace deal between the two countries.
The report, citing two senior White House officials, indicated that a peace agreement could potentially be announced following the talks.
According to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, Trump is expected to hold separate meetings with each leader before bringing them together for a joint session. The move is part of the president’s wider push to resolve international conflicts and position himself as a key global mediator.
No further details have been officially released, and there has been no statement from the White House or U.S. State Department.
Azerbaijan has so far made no comment on the report, while Armenia said it “can neither confirm nor deny” the information and urged the public to await an official announcement.
Aliyev and Pashinyan last met on 10 July in Abu Dhabi, where they discussed a draft peace treaty first introduced in March. Following the Abu Dhabi meeting, Trump remarked that the two sides were “pretty close” to reaching a deal, though he offered no specifics.
