Trump announces new Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict ceasefire brokered by US
Fox News ^ | Oct 25, 2020 | Danielle Wallace

After taking the stage at a campaign stop in New Hampshire, President Trump tweeted his congratulations Sunday to the Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, “who just agreed to adhere to a cease fire effective at midnight.”

“Many lives will be saved,” Trump wrote, adding that he was “proud of my team,” including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Deputy Secretary of State Stephen E. Biegun, and the White House's National Security Council, for “getting the deal done!”

The deal brokered by the U.S. comes after Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov met with Biegun on Saturday in Washington, D.C. Russia has tried to broker a ceasefire in the region twice before this month, but both frayed immediately, as both Armenia and Azerbaijan accused each other of violations.

This time, the U.S. “facilitated intensive negotiations among the Foreign Ministers and the Minsk Group Co-Chairs to move Armenia and Azerbaijan closer to a peaceful resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,” according to the statement released by the State Department on Sunday.

Fighting over Nagorno-Karabakh broke out on Sept. 27 and has grown into the biggest escalation in years over the region that lies within Azerbaijan but has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces backed by Armenia since the end of a separatist war in 1994.

“Look at Armenia, they are incredible people, they’re fighting like hell,” Trump said. “Yesterday in Ohio we had a tremendous group of Armenians with the flags and the spirit. And the problems that they have, the deaths, the fighting and everything else, we’ll get that straightened out. I call that an easy one.”

To continue on my comments about my talk with an undecided voter over weekend.

I mentioned hitting Dems on fake impeachment during the beginning of the pandemic being that COVID was one of two things mentioned by that undecided voter and I81 Pa has a huge Trump Killed 200K people sign a Dem theme they are pushing.

The second issue bothering this undecided voter was bringing the country together. Time has come for the President to get the word out that he will be president of everyone on both sides and the he will do what it takes to heal the rifts between the cultural divide. I know its talk but this is politics and they need to hear this message.

That should make all those Armenians in Cali happy. The ones that were out at the Trump parade.

Does your friend know anything about the four previous peace deals that have been brokered by President Trump? He has been nominated for four different Nobel peace prize because of it. They probably have no idea.

I would assume Trump told Turkey to get back in line. They were doing a lot of weapons transfer to Azerbaijan.

The American Public as a whole does not know about this conflict. And we can count on the Lamestream Media to keep it that way.

I hope this works, but if it doesn’t, it will NOT because the President didn’t try his best.
