ASTANA, Kazakhstan, January 14. The Trump Route
for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) will open up
opportunities for Kazakhstan to expand its oil transportation
routes, Mazhilis deputy Murat Abenov told reporters following a
meeting in Astana, Trend reports


Commenting on attacks on the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC),
he noted that finding alternative routes is currently a top
priority. According to him, the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan
previously prevented the use of this corridor. Abenov added that
now, with U.S. involvement, the corridor will be developed, giving
Kazakhstan a chance to expand its oil transportation routes.

agreement signed between Armenia and the U.S. on the implementation
of the TRIPP project. Mirzoyan and Rubio met in Washington and
presented a framework program for the implementation of the TRIPP
project. The published document was assessed as a new step towards
fulfilling the commitments made at the White House on August 8,
2025, to support the establishment of a sustainable peace in the
South Caucasus.


The joint statement issued by Mirzoyan and Rubio announced
Armenia's intention to approve and endorse the establishment of the
TRIPP Development Company, tasked with overseeing the
implementation of the TRIPP project. The company will be granted
the authority to manage the project for an initial term of 49
years. Yerevan plans to offer Washington a 74% stake in the TRIPP
Development Company, while retaining a 26% share for itself.







On August 8, in Washington, President of the Republic of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, U.S. President Donald Trump, and Armenian
