Abstract
Clashes between Azeris and Armenians over the Nagorno Karabakh enclave have recently been resumed. Although the conflict has been rooted since both states’ independence, the new global context may drag other actors as stakeholders. The situation is a real Gordian knot in the middle of the Caucasus, but its threads are intertwined with conflicts in other world regions. Possible crisis scenarios arising from Nagorno Karabakh include northern Europe, the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East. For this reason, containing the conflict within its boundaries is considered of paramount importance meanwhile are sought solutions to reach long-term agreements, or at least maintain the status quo in the area.
