The US government’s official spending database shows that money allocated for TRIPP+ Enterprise Fund, the parent funding source of the Trump Route, has increased from $201 million to $402 million. The implementation deadline has remained untouched, and the US has yet to officially comment on the funding boost. The Trump Route, also known by its official name the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP), agreed upon by Armenia and Azerbaijan with US mediation, would connect Azerbaijan to its exclave Nakhchivan through Armenian territory. The Trump Route is a central part of the newfound US engagement in the South Caucasus and a key outcome of the 2025 Washington meeting between Trump, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. The historic talks resulted in the initialling, but not the signing, of a peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as laying the basis for the Trump Route.
