    MEDIA ALERT: Streit Council Publication Draws Attention to Water
    Security and the Nagorno Karabakh Conflict

    DATE: November 7, 2014

    TO: Media Colleagues

    In an article published on November 3 by the Streit Council for a
    Union of Democracies, titled "Whose Hands on the Spigot? Water
    Security and the Nagorno Karabakh Conflict," Americans for Artsakh's
    Executive Director, Mark Dietzen, offers a new dimension to Nagorno
    Karabakh that will change the way people view the map of the region.

    "Nagorno Karabakh's water resources play a critical role in the
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Yet, most discussion of natural resources
    in the dispute overlooks this fact by narrowly focusing on
    Azerbaijan's oil and natural gas supplies. This article demonstrates
    that the control and use of Karabakh's 'clear gold' has the potential
    for either cooperation or conflict, and significant implications for
    any final resolution to the Karabakh problem... Further, it reveals that
    Karabakh's hydro resources are not only important for the parties to
    the conflict, but also other international actors."

    The article is available online in the Streit Council's Transatlantic
    Security section, and can be viewed here:
