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:
