David Khudatyan: I am confident that Iran has no concerns about TRIPP

ArmInfo. Armenia's Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure is confident that Iran has no concerns regarding the implementation of the TRIPP (Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity) project. He stated this during a briefing with journalists on November 9.

 

It should be noted that an Iranian delegation led by Vice President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Seyed Hamid Pourmohammadi arrived in Armenia to participate in the work of the Armenia-Iran intergovernmental commission.

It should be recalled that on August 8, 2025, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev signed a seven-point joint "Declaration of Peace" in Washington. It provides for a joint appeal to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to terminate the OSCE Minsk Process and related structures, as well as the creation of a transport corridor through Armenian territory that will connect Azerbaijan with its Nakhchivan exclave, surrounded by Armenia, Turkey, and Iran. On January 14, 2026, the Armenian Foreign Ministry published a framework document signed with the American side in Washington for the implementation of the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP). The 12-page document outlines the project's main objectives and operating mechanisms.

Among other things, the document emphasizes that Armenia intends to authorize and support the establishment of the TRIPP Development Company. The company is expected to be responsible for the development of the TRIPP project, receiving an initial development right for a period of 49 years. Armenia intends to offer the United States a 74% stake in the TRIPP Development Company, retaining 26%.

This partnership is expected to be extended for another 50 years, with an additional ownership stake granted to the Armenian government, bringing its stake to 49%.
