Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan signed the law ratifying a framework agreement with the United States on the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity, or TRIPP, completing the presidential approval stage after a parliamentary vote.
The law was signed Nov. 10, and the Armenian president’s office announced the action Nov. 11.
The document concerns a framework agreement between Yerevan and Washington on strategic cooperation under the TRIPP project.
Armenia’s National Assembly previously approved ratification by a vote of 63-32. Khachaturyan’s signature marks a new legal step following the parliamentary decision.
The project calls for a transport connection between mainland Azerbaijan and the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic through Armenian territory.
The signature does not by itself mean the route is operational. Practical implementation will require further agreements and infrastructure work.
