🇺🇸 U.S. Vice President JD Vance is embarking on a tour of the South Caucasus, making stops in Yerevan and Baku. This marks him as the first senior U.S. official to visit these two former Soviet republics. Beginning on February 9 in Armenia, Vance's trip aims to advance the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity” initiative and enhance U.S. relations with both nations. While Russia has expressed a willingness to participate in the initiative, Armenia is currently opposed. #US #Market_Update
