Trump highlights Azerbaijani president’s praise for US role in deal with Armenia

US President Donald Trump has stated that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev highlighted the role of his American counterpart in resolving the conflict between Baku and Yerevan.

Speaking at the 81st session of the UN General Assembly in New York, he said since he took office, it has been my great honour to settle eight wars and, in so doing, become friendly with the leaders of many of those countries, Caliber.Az reports.

“The reason I was able to make these settlements was the use of my relationships, very special relationships to this date, very, very special. Trade, the use of tariffs and the threat of tariffs and various other reasons depending on the country. Among them, terms of settlement. Cambodia and Thailand, <…> Armenia and Azerbaijan. Almost every one of these countries wrote me a letter of thank you. <…> The President of Azerbaijan said President Trump in six months did a miracle. It was an absolute miracle that nobody thought could be done. The prime minister of Armenia said this breakthrough would simply not have been possible without President Trump’s personal engagement and his resolute commitment to peace,” he stressed.
