Commentators on Facebook* considered the fuel supplies as confirmation of the normalization of relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Some users considered the trade to be an indicator of normalizing relations between Baku and Yerevan. They pointed to the prospect of joint development and peaceful coexistence for future generations.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", on January 9, Azerbaijan sent its second batch of petroleum products to Armenia—almost 2,000 tons of gasoline and diesel fuel—in three weeks. Earlier, on December 18, 2025, the State Oil Company of the Azerbaijan Republic delivered locally produced petroleum products to Armenia for the first time.

A discussion of the "Caucasian Knot" Facebook post* on fuel supplies from Azerbaijan to Armenia had garnered 1,229 comments by 3:30 PM Moscow time. Many users used hate speech, recalling the exodus of Armenians from Karabakh and the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

However, a notable feature of the discussion was that some readers from Armenia and Azerbaijan emphasized the importance of peace and cooperation between the countries, considering trade and normalized relations a step toward a future without war. They see an opportunity for joint development, friendship between peoples, and improving the lives of future generations.

Possible lease term options "Trump Route" projects differ almost twofold.

Armenia and the United States are discussing two scenarios for granting construction rights for the "Trump Route" project in Armenia: for 99 and 49 years, with the land remaining Armenian property, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated. Construction is expected to begin in 2026, but border delimitation may be necessary for the project's implementation.

"This is being done for future generations. The time will come, beautiful high-speed trains will run, Armenians and Azerbaijanis will visit each other, and won't call each other names. You just won't see all this because you'll be dead. New people will come, smarter and more educated," noted Artur Karakashian.

We are neighbors and should live peacefully, so bravo to our leaders. "People aren't ready for direct communication yet, but that will happen soon. We live in different countries and communicate very well and are friends. I have Azerbaijanis at work, Jabir and Emil, and we get along very well, even like brothers, so everything will be fine, I hope," agrees Harutyun Mkrtumyan.

"Wonderful! Finally, the region will be able to develop peacefully. Countries that have lived side by side for decades will be able to establish relations without interference from third parties. No one in the region needs an artificially induced conflict. It is needed only by those who want to keep the region under their control. I think our peoples have realized this." "There is a chance to develop without control and war if we can develop trade and be useful to each other," said Lilit Gazarian.

There is a good saying: "A good neighbor is better than a distant relative," replied a user with the nickname Mansur Aliyev.

"This world is no longer surprised by bloody hatred, enmity, bombings, and the deaths of innocent people. This world can be surprised when two once warring peoples lay down their arms and extend their hands to each other in the name of life and prosperity. And only courageous people, highlanders, are capable of such an act!" said Sholpan Sadykova .

"This is better than fighting and killing, destroying cities. The territories have been returned, the sovereignty of Azerbaijan has been restored. "Now, for the sake of future generations, we must build peace. But without forgetting the losses and always remembering the past, so that it doesn't repeat itself," wrote a reader with the nickname Shahla Samedova.

"I'll tell you, dear commentators, as an outside observer: anyone who is against Armenia and Azerbaijan living in peace and harmony is an enemy of their own state and their own people." "It's the 21st century, and brutal hatred based on nationality, skin color, or religion is a sign of a lack of intelligence and savagery," David Lagvilava concluded.

It should be noted that in early November 2025, a cargo of Russian grain arrived in Armenia via Azerbaijan for the first time since the 1990s. The Armenian government noted that this was a fulfillment of one of the agreements reached in the United States, which contributes to strengthening the peace established between Yerevan and Baku. This happened because Azerbaijan lifted restrictions on the transit of goods to Armenia.
