The peace agreement was the result of a collaborative effort between the US and Kazakhstan. The negotiations for the peace treaty took place at the level of foreign ministers, as offered by Kazakhstan in Almaty.

It lays the foundation for the development of cooperation between the two countries on the basis of lasting peace. The agreement is a significant achievement in resolving the conflict and is expected to bring long-term stability to the South Caucasus, thanks in part to Kazakhstan's crucial role as a regional facilitator and supporter.
