THREATS TOWARDS THE HYDROSECURITY OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN

Abstract

For more than 25 years, the Republic of Azerbaijan suffers from the ecological terrorism committed by Armenia. At present, the terrorist war of Armenia against Azerbaijan is carried out in different ways by passing from the active armed struggle to the "cold terror war" phase. The ecological situation around the Kur-Araz basin in the South Caucasus has been investigated from the political point of view. The study found that the ecological environment of Kur-Araz river basins is in a very dangerous situation. The pollution of transboundary waters has been polluted by exploiting the water basins and rivers in the occupied territories by Armenia. The Sarsang reservoir, which is also the target of Armenia's hydroterror activity and occupation, is a securityoriented provocation of the population in the region. Most of the problems we face today, that is, all the infections and viruses that cause the destruction of humans and living things in general, are caused by environmental pollution. From this point of view, protection of water sources from pollution is always important in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem, as well as the health of the population. Integrated management of water resources in the Republic of Azerbaijan, taking into account the basin principle, as well as unequal distribution and limited water resources in the country, extreme pollution of transboundary waters, imperfect management tools and institutional relations pose new threats to water security.
