Aug. 8 (UPI) -- The leaders of Azerbaijan and Armenia will be at the White House Friday with President Donald Trump to sign a peace agreement to end a decades-long conflict.
Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev and Armenia Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan will visit for a "Historic Peace Summit," Trump wrote on Truth Social Thursday night.
The two are committing to a peace deal that would end a conflict that has been in place since 1988.
They will also sign agreements that will expand their ties with the United States. This was made possible because the United States helped resolve a dispute over the development of a shared transit corridor, according to Politico.
The peace agreement will be the first ever between the two former Soviet countries.
