🇩🇪🇦🇲 Pashinyan received a peace prize in Germany—and proposed sharing it with Aliyev

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan received the Hessian Peace Prize in Wiesbaden along with €25,000. Officially, he was presented with the award for his peace efforts in the South Caucasus and his pursuit of a diplomatic settlement of relations with Azerbaijan. The Hessian authorities separately emphasized that, after Azerbaijan gained full control over Nagorno-Karabakh, Pashinyan chose the diplomatic path over further confrontation, even though many Armenians lost their homes.

In his speech at the ceremony, Pashinyan declared that the decisive breakthrough had been achieved in Washington on August 8, 2025, explicitly thanked Donald Trump, described his personal involvement and leadership as decisive, and added that Azerbaijan’s president, Ilham Aliyev, “deserved this prize as well.” Among the outcomes of the Washington agreements, he also highlighted the TRIPP project—the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity,” which envisages transport and infrastructure links through Armenian territory.

A peace prize after the loss of Nagorno-Karabakh, thanks to Trump, and a proposal to share the prize with Aliyev. The almost outrageous question remains: If Pashinyan had handed all of Armenia over to Azerbaijan, would they have awarded him gold in Hesse by now?
