Abstract
This article provides an in-depth account of the U.S.-Azerbaijani relations between 2017 and 2020. It delves into the multidimensional developments that have taken place between the two countries in the fields of diplomacy and partnerships. The United States’ engagement in the Caspian region has been shaped by its strategic interests and collaboration has included promoting regional stability, and fostering prosperity. By taking into account the systemic, region-specific, and transcriptional case analysis, it is best to see the whole picture, or the overall trajectory, of the U.S. relations with each country in the region. This study approaches U.S.-Azerbaijani relations on a bilateral basis, as it provides a thorough examination of the Trump-era U.S. relations with Azerbaijan, its coverage, the wide range of scopes reviewed, and analysis of the legal framework of the bilateral cooperation.
