Der Bergkarabach Konflikt zwischen Armenien und Aserbaidschan bleibt auch nach mehr als 30 Jahren der gefährlichste Konflikt in der post-sowjetischen Zeit. In diesem Working Document befindet sich das grundsätzlich überarbeitete Kapitel 7 der in Kürze erscheinenden zweiten Auflage des Buches “Beyond Frozen Conflict: Scenarios for the Separatist Disputes of Eastern Europe” von Thomas de Waal und Nikolaus von Twickel, herausgegeben von Michael Emerson.

Aserbaidschan hat nach den Verlusten von Anfang der 1990er Jahre im letzten Jahr die armenische Seite besiegt und gedemütigt zurückgelassen. Zum ersten Mal hat sich Russland mitten in die Konfliktzone begeben, indem es eine Friedenstruppe nach Karabach geschickt habt. Ein endgültiges armenisch-aserbaidschanisches Friedensabkommen müsste den Status von Bergkarabach regeln, um die Beziehungen zwischen Baku und Eriwan zu befrieden. Aber dies scheint nach wie vor in weiter Ferne zu liegen.

The Katholikentag in Würzburg has shown that peace, security and development go hand in hand. In this interview, Dorothee Klüppel, a member of FriEnt’s Steering Committee and Head of the Africa/Middle East Department at Misereor, explains why security is more than just military strength, why justice, democracy and international cooperation are key prerequisites for sustainable peace and what special role church actors play in this – particularly in times of rearmament and geopolitical tensions.
