A confidential document from the US Embassy in Yerevan is circulating online, allegedly about possible coordination with Armenia near the border with Iran.
The document, marked “For Internal Use Only” and marked “Not for Distribution,” and distributed by a number of Armenian media outlets, contains proposals for discussing strategic coordination between the United States and Armenia amid growing instability and threats from Iran. Among the key points:
— Logistics support: The United States offers to discuss confidentially the possibility of using infrastructure in the southern regions of Armenia for the storage of non-lethal materials. The facilities must remain under the control of the Armenian side.
— Covert Movement of Personnel: Approval is requested for limited and undocumented movement of allied personnel near the Armenia-Iran border.
— Intelligence sharing: The US has expressed interest in synchronising technical information, including from civilian missions such as EUMM operating in border regions.
The document emphasizes that the proposals do not represent the official position of the United States and are intended solely for informal discussion.
