According to a statement from Azerbaijan’s presidency, the leaders welcomed progress in implementing the outcomes of their Washington, DC summit in August last year, which was observed by US President Donald Trump. Both sides emphasized the importance of sustaining positive momentum in advancing the Azerbaijan-Armenia normalization process on a bilateral basis, noting that their societies are beginning to experience “real benefits of peace on the ground.”

The two leaders also agreed to continue exploring ways to expand trade and economic ties, welcomed reciprocal visits by civil society representatives, and highlighted the need to broaden confidence-building measures.
