For decades, Armenian diplomacy and diaspora advocacy treated every new recognition of the Armenian Genocide as a victory to be announced, celebrated, and added to the tally. On June 28, one of the most symbolically significant recognitions of all finally arrived. Israel’s government unanimously approved a resolution recognizing the mass killings of Armenians during World War I as genocide, a move proposed by Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar. And yet in Yerevan, there were no speeches, no gratitude, and no flags. The official reaction was, in essence, a shrug. That silence tells us more about where Armenia stands in mid-2026 than the recognition itself.

On May 26, Secretary of State Marco Rubio landed in Yerevan for what his team described as a working visit: one hour on the ground, flying in from India and back to Washington. In that single hour, three agreements were signed between Armenia and the United States. The texts were published the same day, but the ongoing election campaign consumed the public conversation entirely. Now that Armenians have voted and the political landscape has somewhat settled, this is the right moment to read those agreements with clear eyes and ask what they actually mean for the country. The one that deserves the closest reading is also the one that received the least attention: the memorandum on critical minerals and rare earths.
