On December 4, on the margins of the OSCE Ministerial Council, Foreign Minister of Armenia Ararat Mirzoyan had a meeting with Stephen Doughty, Minister of State for Europe, North America, and the Overseas Territories of the United Kingdom.

The ministers discussed the development of the strategic partnership between Armenia and the United Kingdom, the foreign ministry said in a press release. 

The effective steps towards overcoming the challenges encountered on the path of democratic development, as well as the initiatives undertaken to strengthen Armenia’s resilience were touched upon.

Ararat Mirzoyan and Stephen Doughty exchanged views on opportunities for regional cooperation. Minister Mirzoyan presented the active work towards the implementation of the TRIPP project.

The Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) is a connectivity project in Armenia, envisaged under the U.S.-brokered Armenian-Azerbaijani joint declaration signed in Washington, D.C. The project is expected to unlock strategic economic opportunities, create long-term benefits by promoting infrastructure investment, and enhance regional connectivity. TRIPP is part of the Crossroads of Peace project, and an Armenian-American joint enterprise is expected to develop the route.
