Armenia expects TRIPP construction to begin in 2026

Armenia expects construction work under the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) project to begin in 2026.

Report informs, citing Armenian media, that the country's Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this at a briefing.

"Work is continuing uninterrupted. Engineering, design, financial and logistical issues are being discussed, if not daily, then at least weekly. In other words, the process is moving forward, and if technical issues do not hinder it, we want construction work to begin this year," he said.

Pashinyan said there were no political or financial obstacles to the implementation of the TRIPP project.

Touching on the agenda of Armenian-US cooperation, he said an important bilateral document is expected to be ratified soon, after which the sides will move directly to the stage of its implementation.
