YEREVAN — The Armenian government has approved a draft law on ratifying the charter of the newly established Peace Council.
The charter, signed by Armenia on January 22, 2026, has also been endorsed by several other countries, including the United States, Argentina, Azerbaijan, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Qatar, and Turkey.
The Peace Council is an international organization aimed at promoting stability and peace in conflict-affected regions by developing and sharing best practices within the framework of international law.
According to Armenia’s Ministry of Finance, the charter entails financial obligations that could increase state budget expenditures. However, the Ministry of Justice confirmed that the document complies with Armenia’s legal framework and is eligible for ratification.
The Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure noted that the charter does not impose property-related obligations on Armenia.
The Peace Council was established in 2026 under the leadership of Donald Trump and aims to foster stability, restore effective governance, and ensure lasting peace in regions affected by conflict or at risk.
