This deal ends 35 years of fighting.

If you knew anything at all about more than 35 years of Nagorno-Karabakh ('Artsakh Republic') conflicts and Lachin corridor (en.wikipedia.org - whatever replaces it to be named "Trump road"?), you would know that the "deal" which kind of "ended" conflict was the 1-day offensive of Azerbaijan forces in September of 2023 after they choked off the only road to Armenian enclave ("protected" by 2020 Russia-brokered ceasefire) and almost all Armenians who were able, fled to Armenia.
"On September 28 2023, the president of Artsakh signed a decree to dissolve all state institutions and existence of the Artsakh Republic to an end by January 1 2024."
'Artsakh Republic' no longer exists... neither does the conflict. Nothing to fight over since Sept 2023. In 2024 both countries had peace treaty talks; in April 2024 outline of peace agreement, with 1991 post-Soviet borders and land handover was approved by Blinken.
No "peace" was "brokered" by Trump.
Armenia (former member of Russia's 'mini-NATO' lookalike CSTO) is pissed at Putin who promised protection, but removed his "peacekeeping" troops. It since looked for security (from Azerbaijan and Turkey threats) to the US and EU.

The leaders of both countries have said that Trump was instrumental in getting the peace deal done.
What did you expect? It's part of the same sad script in the spectacle and charade that "Man of Peace" Trump is running, chasing Nobel Peace Prize.
Did you know that he tasked "Little" Marco Rubio to find whoever wherever want to sign the already negotiated peace agreements and bring them to White House for signing ceremony, even when (as he himself admitted) Trump has no idea of the origins and why there were hostilities in the first place?
The scenario of grift: Trump commits US taxpayers money/support for some project the parties want (and name it "TRUMP something"), claims credit and is publicly praised for "brokering peace" and one/both of them nominate him for Nobel Peace Prize... hoping that either the number of nominations will do it or at least he can boast and complain that he didn't get it despite all the "nominations"... as he already did during Congo-Rwanda signing.
You remember "celebrating" Congo-Rwanda sham-wow "peace accord" Trump claimed credit for and promised "US support" just a month ago?

It's insane that you view EVERYTHING through a Trump lens.
It's insane that you have not a bit of curiosity or critical thinking when it comes to anything Trump - for Trump, EVERYTHING is really ALL about TRUMP!
Congratulations, "You've been Apprenticed!"(TM)
