Nagorno-Karabakh fighting raises threat of deadly escalation

Published on: Tuesday 13 October 2020

The escalation of fighting raises the specter of a wider conflict that could draw in Russia and Turkey and threaten Caspian Sea energy exports. Nagorno-Karabakh, populated mostly by Armenians, was an autonomous region inside Azerbaijan during the Soviet era.
