The U.S. Embassy in Armenia has lauded the “historic progress” after Armenia and Türkiye held talks in Kars on the rehabilitation of the Gyumri-Kars railway.
“Historic progress toward a peaceful and prosperous South Caucasus. Armenian and Turkish officials met today in Kars, Türkiye to establish a joint working group for rehabilitating the Kars-Gyumri Railroad. Restoring this critical link between Armenia and Türkiye is an important step in unlocking regional connectivity and solidifying regional stability. The August 8 Washington Summit hosted by President Trump set the stage for such momentous developments. U.S. Embassy Yerevan welcomes these concrete steps toward reopening economic and people-to-people links between Armenia and Türkiye after decades of closure,” the U.S. Embassy in Armenia said in a press release.
