Trump to oversee Armenia-Azerbaijan peace accord that includes key corridor.
Briefly

Trump labeled the gathering a "Historic Peace Summit" as he seeks to be seen as a global peacemaker. A U.S.-brokered agreement aims to ensure peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan, who have had cross-border conflicts since the late 1980s. Armenia has consented to a corridor that will link Azerbaijan with Turkey and Central Asia, bypassing Iran and Russia. This project, supported by Turkey, is opposed by Iran and Russia and signifies a shift in Armenia's stance during U.S.-led diplomatic efforts.
The U.S.-brokered agreement is intended to ensure peace, but also has a significant economic component. Armenia has agreed to allow a 43.5-km corridor through its territory.
The corridor would allow people and goods to travel between Turkey and Azerbaijan and beyond to Central Asia without passing through Iran or Russia.
