Congressman Gus Bilirakis has issued a statement following the signing of a peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The agreement formally ends decades of conflict over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
“Earlier today, Armenia and Azerbaijan signed a historic peace agreement, formally bringing an end to decades of conflict over the Nagorno-Karabakh region,” said Congressman Gus Bilirakis. “This landmark accord—brokered by President Trump in coordination with international mediators—includes mutual recognition of national borders, the reopening of vital transportation corridors, and commitments to enhanced regional cooperation. As Co-Chair of the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues, I commend this significant achievement as a critical step toward enduring peace and stability in the South Caucasus.”
Bilirakis represents Florida’s 12th district in Congress and has served in this role since 2007 after replacing Michael Bilirakis. He previously served in the Florida House of Representatives from 1998 to 2006. Born in Gainesville, Florida in 1963, Bilirakis currently resides in Palm Harbor. He graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor’s degree in 1986 and later earned his law degree from Stetson University in 1989.
