Today, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Brendan Hanrahan, Armenian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Vahan Kostanyan, and Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Elnur Mammadov launched Trilateral Technical Planning Groups to advance the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP), a multimodal transit route.

Demonstrating a shared commitment to turn vision into tangible progress, the parties agreed to inaugurate the first two Trilateral Planning Groups focused on transportation and electricity transmission. These technical planning groups represent a crucial step toward resolving complex technical issues and moving to the next phases of implementation, including connection with other regional infrastructures.
The sides reaffirmed their respective commitments to expeditious operationalization of all modalities of TRIPP.
