In its work program for 2026–2031, the Armenian government set the normalization of relations with Türkiye, the establishment of diplomatic ties and the opening of the border between the two countries as objectives.
The program, prepared by the government led by Nikol Pashinyan, plans to advance the normalization process with Türkiye and put at least two modern border crossing points into operation. It also includes developing cooperation in transportation, energy, digital infrastructure and trade.
