Senior Fellow and Director, Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East

As the Trump administration’s Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity initiative reshapes United States engagement in the South Caucasus, Armenia stands at the center of a pivotal diplomatic moment. Ongoing Armenia-Azerbaijan peace negotiations are creating new opportunities for regional stability, with Washington playing an increasingly active role in supporting the process. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s recent electoral victory opens new avenues for cooperation and strengthens the prospects for sustained diplomatic engagement amid these developments. The Caucasus as a whole is emerging as a critical theater for US foreign policy, with Armenia's strategic positioning making it a key partner in the region.

Join Senior Fellow Michael Doran for a candid conversation with H.E. Narek Mkrtchyan, ambassador of the Republic of Armenia to the United States of America as they discuss the developments, challenges, and opportunities defining the US-Armenia relationship.  

To request an RSVP, please reach out to Natalie Arbatman at narbatman@hudson.org.
